Mosquito Show

Two players each control a toucan and a chameleon on a 4x4 grid and compete to eat the most valuable mosquitoes. Mosquito tokens are stacked at the nine internal intersections; yellow mosquitoes score an immediate win if a player collects nine. On a turn a player moves either their chameleon or toucan. The chameleon eats a mosquito from a corner of its current square, then moves one square orthogonally. The toucan moves diagonally across squares and must eat the top mosquito at each corner it crosses; it may travel multiple squares in one move if each crossing can be fed. Some colored mosquitoes grant special actions such as moving a mosquito, moving an animal, or forcing the opponent to use a specific animal. A player who cannot feed either animal loses.
