boop. from Smirk & Laughter has one of the cutest themes ever in a board game which is matched equally by its component quality. This game includes wooden kitten and cat pieces in two patterns and a quilted board that you put on top of the box to build a bed. Don't let the cute theme fool you though, this is a strategic abstract strategy game with an almost chess-like feel at times.

From the Publisher:

When you place a kitten on the bed, it goes “boop.” Which is to say that it pushes every other kitten next to it on the board one space away. Line up three kittens in a row to graduate them into cats… and then, get three cats in a row to win.

 But that isn’t easy with both you AND your opponent constantly “booping” kittens around. 

It’s like… herding cats!

Can you “boop” your cats into position to win? Or will you just get “booped” right off the bed?

 It is an approachable but challenging abstract game and a worthy follow-up to SHOBU.     

Plays in 20 to 30 minutes.

Features a quilted, fabric board that lays over the back of the box, completing the miniature bed playing surface. 8 wood kittens and cats per player - 32 adorable cat pieces in all!
