Board Game - Ratapolis

You happily live in the city of Ratapolis and enjoy your rat life with your large family. However, there are other rat families in the city, and sometimes it is not easy to get along and share all the pieces... of cheese. Unfortunately, your rat happiness did not last long. There became so many rats that the residents of Ratapolis called the famous ratcatcher Baltus and his cats to the city.

In the game "Ratapolis," you will have to hide from the ratcatcher Baltus and his cats, taking risks: staying in a well-known area or running away, pushing out your neighbors. Plan your moves and attacks on other rat families, as control over certain territories can become your tactical advantage. But the most important thing in every rat's life is cheese! The player who collects the most cheese at the end of the game becomes the winner.

The game lasts for 8 rounds. Each round consists of 5 consecutive phases.
1. Drawing hunting cards
Players receive one hunting card each and place hunting cards on the hunter's board. This way, each player knows in which area Baltus's cat may appear.
2. Action planning
Players plan two actions for the current round. To do this, each player writes down two actions. In each of the two slots, a player can write one of three possible actions: attack an opponent's rat, move a group of rats, or do nothing. It’s better to use a screen in this round so players don’t learn each other's plans.
3. Performing actions
Players remove the screens and simultaneously perform the previously recorded actions. All planned attacks occur first, followed by all planned movements.
4. Cat hunting
The hunting cards dealt to players at the beginning of the round, as well as the cards on the hunter's board, are shuffled face down, the top card is revealed and placed on the player's board in the current round's area. The building tile corresponding to the revealed card is attacked by Baltus's cats. The building tile is removed, and the rat figures are returned to their owners.
5. Distribution of building property tokens
If one of the players has an advantage on the building tile, they receive the property token for that building, which they can use later.
Once all phases are completed, the round ends, and a new one begins.
The game ends after phase 4 in round 8. Players count the amount of cheese that their rat families managed to keep. The player with the most cheese wins.
