Mechanics (from transcript analysis)

• Combat and encounters — Fights may occur when moving onto spaces with another kitten; battles are resolved by dice and skill comparisons.
• Growth and endgame — Medals advance a growth track; reaching enough medals triggers the endgame and determines the winner by tally order and relationships.
• Movement — Kittens move orthogonally up to a number of spaces shown on the stamina track, with special considerations for hedges, roofs, and track-based limits.
• Scenario deck — Seven scenarios provide varied missions; rules allow mixing/matching for replayability and fresh challenges.
