Much like Ghost Castle, the box acts as the playing surface for this pinball-like game. Two players launch tiny catapult balls at each other through the cutouts in the face of a cat. Use the magnetic paw to get all the balls of one color on your opponent’s side of the board to score a point. Be the first player to score five points to win the game.

Flick the balls on your side through the mouth with the magnetic paw.

Set up takes only minutes and even kids will have no trouble following the pictured instructions. Once you insert the cat face into the slots and get the bumper walls surrounding the surface in place, put the black ball into the nose and three white “teeth” balls into the cat’s mouth. Then give each player four yellow balls, count down from three, and let the fun fly. Fire balls of any color using the magnetic cat paw and send them soaring to the opposite side of the board. Master your strategy for aiming and reloading balls to win. 

Lost the round? Each round only takes a few minutes to complete, meaning you have plenty of time to play another match. Don’t forget to score your points at the end of each round. Rotate the eyes of the cat to track each player’s points.

Everything packs neatly back into the box.

Once you finish playing, everything packs up neatly into the box for compact storage. A handle on top makes it easy to take this game anywhere you want to play. If you can’t wait to send some hairballs flying, get your paws on this fun-filled game of skill and chance.
