Fluffy Dice Detailed Page.

Fluffy Dice

Cats, turned into cubes by a witch, participate in a board-game. They are thrown like dice, where the outcome of the roll determines how far the cube/cat can move. At each step the cube rolls over, triggering new effects, for example a cat can jumping, when turned on its tail. Skillfully rolling the dice and carefully planning moves is essential to winning the race against other felines. A few cats fight with claws over the scarce ingredients, which are needed to lift the spell.
