Fish & Katz
Wear a cat paw, point at the fish you want, and hope nobody else picked the same one.

You are kitten chefs at the Tsukiji fish market, and you shop by pointing. Everyone slips on a cloth cat paw, and on the count of three you all stab at the fish card you want. Point alone and it's yours; point together and nobody gets it.
Who it's for
Party rounds of four or five and families with kids from five upwards who want something physical and immediate.
Not for you if…
You want depth or quiet — this is a reflex and nerve game, rounds blur together, and a shy player gets steamrolled by the confident ones.
Vibe's take
Loud, fast and faintly ridiculous. The paws are the whole personality of the game and they earn their place within one round.
