Gameplay

Dice equal to the number of players +1 are rolled each turn. Each player takes one die, and the die not chosen is used by all players.

Players use one die's value to choose a spot on a cat tower column. The other die's value is used to place one of the six items. Footprints at the track to the right allow players to change die values. Multiple footprints can be used on a single die, but a 6 cannot be changed into a 1 nor a 1 into a 6.

When a column is completed for the first time in the game, the player will receive the larger number indicated at the top if they have a cat house symbol in that column. Otherwise that player and all other players will receive the smaller value when a column is completed.

You can pass your turn to circle three footprints on the track at the right.

End

The game ends when a player completes three columns and all players have had an equal number of turns.

Scoring and Item Effects
