Mäuse Trio 1997

Can you avoid three cats and dispose of all your cards.

The cards are actually called Guckloch-Karten and are triangle shaped (to represent a slice of cheese). Further more each card has six 'faces'. Each 'face' will either be a cat, or a mouse, or a hole. The holes mean that when it is placed on a stack, the 'faces' on the card underneath the holes will show through.

The game is played in rounds and a round ends when one player has no cards left.

Each player gets a stack of cards. The board is plastic and represents a cheese. In a turn a player takes the top card of his stack and chooses which side to play. Then he lays the card in the sliced area of the board. Then the next player does the same, and so on.

The object is to lay a card so that at least 3 mouse faces are visible. If this is acheived, the player can play another card. And so on, but no more than 3 cards can be played in a single turn. Should a player play a card that has three cat faces shown, that player must take up all the cards played so far and put them at the bottom of his stack. If you use your last card, you win the round and receive a cheese token.

The first player to get three cheese tokens, wins.
