A Game of Cat & Mouth

Players sit on opposite sides of a hinged board that forms a cat face and lock a magnetic cat’s paw to their edge. A single black nose, three white teeth, and eight yellow balls are arranged in the mouth and on the board as the starting setup. On a turn, each player uses the magnetic paw to flick balls through the cat’s mouth toward the opponent, or to target the nose and teeth to knock them out. A round ends when all balls of any one color end up on a single side; the opponent of that side scores a point. Players reset the pieces and play additional rounds to determine the winner.
