Manual — The Isle of Cats: Kickstarter Pack 2

KICKSTARTER PACK 2
The Isle of Cats Kickstarter Pack 2 contains upgraded components and new content for the Kittens + Beasts expansion and can be mixed in with the existing components.

COMPONENTS AND FIRST TIME SETUP

25 LARGE BEAST
MEEPLES
These are upgrades
for your existing
small beast meeples;
the small ones will no
longer be needed.

15 CAT TILES
Place these in the
discovery bag
with the rest of
the cat tiles.

OSHAX KITTENS
STANDARD AND SOLO MODES
Oshax kittens follow all the normal rules for both Oshax
and kittens with the exception of the basket restriction
detailed below.

They are drawn from the kitten bag, placed on the kitten
board, and during phase 4: Rescuing Cats, the fastest player
may rescue them using fish and a basket. When you place an
Oshax kitten on your boat, you will choose which cat family
it will befriend and place the matching cat figure on the tile
as per the normal Oshax rules.

BASKET RESTRICTION
Unlike regular kittens, Oshax kittens take up an entire
basket while being rescued. If you choose to rescue an
Oshax kitten, it will require 1 basket and 2 fish, and you may
not spend extra fish to rescue a second kitten with the same
basket.

4 OSHAX KITTENS
Place these in the
green kitten bag
with the rest of the
kitten tiles.

10 EVENT TILES
Place these in the
blue event bag
with the rest of
the event tiles.

IDENTIFYING KICKSTARTER
PACK 2 CARDS
All of the cards included with
Kickstarter Pack 2 show the lightning
symbol in the bottom left corner.

12 CORE CARDS
The 12 cards should be added
to your discovery
deck. Once added,
you never need to
remove them.

6 BEAST TILES
Place these in
the red beast bag
with the rest of
the beast tiles.

FAMILY MODE
Oshax kittens follow all the normal rules for kittens, with 2
exceptions:

1) You can only have 1 Oshax kitten on the kitten board at
any time. When drawing kittens from the bag, if you draw
2 or more Oshax kittens, you should place any extra Oshax
kittens to one side, continue drawing kittens until the kitten
board is filled and then return the extra Oshax kittens to the
bag.

2) Unlike regular cats and kittens, Oshax kittens do not have
a colour. At the end of the game (during scoring) for each
Oshax kitten on your boat you may choose which of the 5 cat
colours you would like it to be. Whichever colour you choose
will be used for scoring both families and lesson cards. Just
like regular kittens, Oshax kittens do count as cats.
If you place an Oshax kitten on a treasure map, you do not
get to take a treasure.
