Mausgetrixt (2012)

About this game

Mausgetrixt is a memory game about harvesting vegetables. One player (the mouse player) arranges the vegetables and mice under the board. On the upper side of the board, you only see leaves. The other players roll a colour die and than look at a plant. If there is a vegetable or mouse of the same colour attached to the leave, the player can remove it. If the die shows a mouse, the mouse player may remove one vegetable from the bottom of the board. The mouse player wins, if all vegetables are removed before all 3 mice are removed, otherwise all other players win.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 1.0/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 5 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
