Game of Cat and Mouse
2–4 players · 20 min · 4+
A simple game for children. The board is a grid of squares with mice printed on them in different directions. If you land on a square with your mouse you turn it as indicated and make your next move in that direction. Some squares are holes and if your mouse lands there, it falls down into the box, which has cats printed on it. The last player who has a mouse left wins. Alternatively, for the more cruel kids or those who simply enjoy to throw in the mice, the first player to "clean the house of mice" wins.
