Get your claws ready, because the busiest fish market in the feline world is now open! In Fish & Katz, you step into the role of a kitten chef hunting for the perfect ingredients for your restaurant at the famous Tsukiji Market. But don't expect a relaxing fishing trip: the competition is fierce and requires reflexes that would make any street cat jealous.
The real star of the show isn't just the speed, but the charm (and cuteness!) of the components. Forget just pointing with your finger; you'll be using actual cloth cat paws to indicate your targets. The gameplay is simple, yet the chaos is guaranteed: each round, fish cards are revealed, and on the count of three, all players must simultaneously point their paws at the fish they want. Here's the catch: if you are the only player to pick a specific fish, congratulations, it's yours for your collection! However, if you and another chef point to the same fish at the same time, it's a standoff and nobody gets it. It's a 'get it fast and sneakily' game that requires reading your opponents and quick thinking.
The goal is to collect sets of fish to score points and be the first to reach the 6-point mark. It's a fast-paced game, perfect for those looking for a shot of adrenaline and plenty of laughs in just a few minutes. If you enjoy reaction-based games where a split second of hesitation can cost you your dinner, Fish & Katz is your perfect match. It's light, it's frantic, and let's be honest, it's impossible not to smile while using those little cloth paws!
