もふなべ (Mofunabe)

In a cozy world inspired by the internet-famous image of cats nestled together in a cooking pot, players gather adorable cats to create the most heartwarming "cat hotpot" imaginable. Each player carefully arranges their cats into the perfect formation, crafting a snug and fluffy masterpiece that embodies both comfort and cuteness. Mofunabe is a trick-taking and tile-placement game in which players use uniquely shaped cat tiles as their hands. Each round, players simultaneously play one tile, following the suit of cat types and comparing numerical values to determine the trick winner. Winning tricks grants players cat tiles that they can then place onto their personal hotpot board, aiming to fill it efficiently and earn points for completing tidy, full, or harmonious cat arrangements. The combination of strategic tile play and spatial puzzle-solving creates a charming balance of tactics and aesthetics.
