Herding Cats (2012)

About this game

Game description from the publisher: Who let the cats out? In Herding Cats, these frisky felines have a mind of their own, and only the Cowdog can wrangle them back up again. Cats are lassoed by a Cowdog of a matching color, and you want to be the player to capture a herd of three cats. Beware of the "Stampede!" card that will send the cats running to score points for other players, and look out for the Wild Cat Lady, who may be able to help you out, if you're in a pinch.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 6.
• 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 6 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
