Rare Treasures are uniquely shaped tiles that are placed below the island when drawn from the bag prior to each day. You collect Rare Treasure tiles by playing yellow Treasure cards during the Rare Finds phase. Each Rare Treasure tile on your boat is worth 3 points at the end of the game. Since tiles are drawn at random from the bag, the quantity of Rare Treasure tiles made available throughout the game will vary. (They are rare, right?)

On each day the cats will venture into the fields on the island and you have until nightfall to attempt to rescue them through 5 phases of play. 1.

Common treasure icon - Take a common treasure identical to what is shown on the card and remove it from the game. Manx cats have been exhibited in cat shows, as a named, distinct breed (and with the modern spelling "Manx"), since the late 1800s. In that era, few shows provided a Manx division, and exhibited specimens were usually entered under the "Any Other Variety" class, where they often could not compete well unless "exceptionally good in size and markings". [19] Early pet breeding and showing expert Charles Henry Lane, himself the owner of a prize-winning rare white rumpy Manx named Lord Luke, published the first known (albeit informal) breed standard for the Manx in his 1903 Rabbits, Cats and Cavies, [19] but noted that already by the time of his writing "if the judge understood the variety" a Manx would be clearly distinguishable from some other tailless cat being exhibited, "as the make of the animal, its movements and its general character are all distinctive." [19] Not all cat experts of the day were favourable toward the breed; in The Cat: Its Points and Management in Health and Disease, Frank Townend Barton wrote in 1908: "There is nothing whatever to recommend the breed, whilst the loss of the tail in no way enhances its beauty." [5] This will be the only round phase for the rest of the game. Similar to the base game, cats will be drawn until there 4 cats per player, with any Rare Treasures set aside. These cat tiles are randomly placed around the island. a b c d e f g h i Barton, Frank Townend (1908). "The Siamese—Abyssinian—Manx". The Cat: Its Points and Management in Health and Disease.

If you put 3 cats on the left side and 1 on the right side at the start of a round, you would end up with cats 1 – 7 on the left side of the island and cats 8 – 12 on the right side of the island. Firstly and definitely the cutest addition to the Isle, are the kittens! The kittens are smaller than the cats and are a wonderful way to help fill those small gaps on board your boat. They are especially useful if you find yourself always running out of small treasures as they are of the same sizes as these. Great online store for board games. They always arrive perfectly and undamaged which is important to me. You must have exactly 5 of the given colour, this includes Oshax, if you have more than 5 you do not get the points.
