Mauwi

When cats arrived in New Zealand in 1640, the Maori Spirits found this animal exceptional. The secret of his nine lives stoked envy. Cats need to become mighty warriors to preserve it. Attacking, defending and strengthening your ranks become the only way to win the game. At your turn you must play a card, on different way: play a card on a new place (four places max.) reinforce a place by playing the same card or a combination to make a total of nine and create a mauw attack an other player with a warrior to steal a card and make a combination. block the column of another player with a spirit (value 0) At the end of each turn, you must pick up a new card to always have 4 card son hand. The game finishes when a player have three mauw in three columns/places. Mauwi is the new version of the game Mauw with new cards as the Kiwi, the Owl or the Lizard, with new mechanics of play. —description from the publisher
