Description

User summary
みかんdeキャッと (Mikan de Kyatto) is MIKAN de CAT, a simple stacking game.

In Japan, the combination of oranges (Mikan) and cats is commonplace, and naturally understood. Kyatto is more of a pun on the sound 'kya' which is an exclamation, intended to sound like 'cat'. The game comes from the practise of always always keeping some oranges in Winter on your Kotatsu (a low table, heated underneath).

In this game, players use a cat spinner or cards, and stack oranges in the glass dish, placed on a table. The designer includes five different ways to play. The cat spinner shows a tomcat.
