About the game
Mausgetrixt is a memory game about harvesting vegetables. One player (the mouse player) arranges the vegetables and mice under the board. On the upper side of the board, you only see leaves. The other players roll a colour die and than look at a plant. If there is a vegetable or mouse of the same colour attached to the leave, the player can remove it. If the die shows a mouse, the mouse player may remove one vegetable from the bottom of the board. The mouse player wins, if all vegetables are removed before all 3 mice are removed, otherwise all other players win.
Questions and answers
Mausgetrixt supports 2–4 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Mausgetrixt is 20 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Mausgetrixt for ages 5 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Mausgetrixt has a complexity rating of 1.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
