The Rats in the Walls
Players take turns claiming whether rats are moving behind the walls, using a cup and hidden dice that show different numbers of rats. A player may believe the claim, challenge it by lifting the cup, or increase the claimed number and continue the round. Incorrect challenges or accepted claims transfer brain tokens between players, while false claims also carry a cost. The game ends when a player loses all of their brain tokens; the player with the most remaining brains wins.
