## Rules questions

### Can I eat Meeples that are on Ruins or Sidewalks?

No — Meeples completely on a Ruin or a Sidewalk aren't in a Neighborhood and thus cannot be eaten during Chow Down (page 5).

### If I flick my Paws off the board during a Move, what happens?

If your Paws leave the City you immediately lose 1 Tooth (returned to the box), then place your Paws on an empty starting area of your choice and continue your turn normally (page 4).

### Do I have to drop my Body directly over a building to Demolish it?

No — you may drop the Body from anywhere above the targeted Building; however, if the Body doesn't hit the Building you immediately lose 1 Tooth (page 4).

### When do Runaway Meeple effects trigger, and can multiple effects happen at once?

Place Meeples on the Runaway board as they leave; when a line (Side A) or zone (Side B) fills the active player suffers the listed negative effects after finishing the current action, and multiple different effects (or the same effect multiple times) can trigger simultaneously (page 5).

### If I knock over another Monster, can I break one of its Teeth even if its Body stays upright?

You only claim a Tooth when you knock the other Monster's Body down; if the Monster is no longer on its Paws but its Body is still upright it's not considered fallen and you cannot break off a Tooth (page 5).

### How does the game end and how do I score points?

The game ends when the last Floor is gobbled/off the City (active player finishes then others take one last turn) or immediately if the 6th line on Side A of the Runaway board fills (that player loses); scoring is 10 points per set of 6 differently colored Meeples, 1 point per Floor, 2 points per Tooth taken from another Monster, plus any Character card bonuses (page 6).
