Gattara: The Cat Magnet is a fast-paced and highly interactive card game for 2-6 players, with games lasting 10-20 minutes. Players attract and steal cats from around the neighbourhood, hiding their cat tokens behind special screens so opponents can't see their score. Cat tokens have different values, from Stray Cats to Pedigree and Show Cats. The game features four types of cards: Green cards allow players to gain cat tokens Red cards force opponents to lose cat tokens Yellow cards manipulate the flow of the game, such as changing turn order or forcing specific actions The Meow cards. These are the key element of the game, creating a chain reaction. When a player is targeted by a 'Meow' card, they can respond immediately with another 'Meow' card, cancelling out the previous effect and doubling the impact on a new target. Players draw up to three cards at the start of their turn and must play one of them. The first player to reach the target score - which depends on the number of players - wins by shouting "GATTARA!". -description from the designer
