A large, rich house must of course contain a large, stocked refrigerator. And there, you will find a lot of cheese! All mice from around the neighborhood have been waiting and longing for the day when the family will leave the house, and they dream of stuffing themselves with that delicious cheese... Then one day, it happened! All the mice rushed to the feast, trying to beat their rivals to the goal, and hoping that the vicious cat won't see them... Whose mice will be able to steal most cheese, whose cats will catch most mice, and whose dogs will chase away most cats? This is the start of a fearsome fight for food and fame, as you Get The Cheese! Each player takes the Animal cards of one color, and a House Card to identify the player's color. Cheese cards form the circumference of a circle. On his turn, a player may either draw 3 Animal cards or place 3 Animal cards. If a player places 3 Animal cards, he places them beside the cheese cards, on the outer side of the circle. The first card is placed face down. The second card and the third card are placed face up, unless you play some of your special cards that permit you to play them face down. Once all players have placed all their Animal cards, the Cheese cards are resolved one at a time. At each Cheese card, the line of animals is resolved in this order: Dogs, Cats, King Mice, regular Mice. The player with the most points wins!
