About the game
The game has 44 picture tiles in pairs, showing items like snails, nails, stars, churches and so on. Each tile has a different number of the item. The game also has a set of numbered wooden discs. I think the players must identify the total when both tiles match, so 4 mice and 6 mice makes 10 mice. Ages 5 and up.
