NyanGo

A tiny board. A big cat-pushing showdown.

NyanGO is a 4×4 competitive board game inspired by Go.

Each player has just 5 cat pieces. Like Go, your goal is to surround your opponent—but here, you can also push pieces.

The board is small and the rules take minutes to learn, yet every move can shift the whole board, making for intense mind games.

How to Play

On your turn, choose one of these 3 actions:

Place: Put a cat from your hand on an empty square

Move: Move one of your cats 1 square up, down, left, or right. Any cat in the way gets pushed

Take Back: Once all 5 cats are on the board, return one of them to your hand

Push & Stun

A pushed cat is stunned by the impact and can't be moved or taken back on the next turn.

Each stun leaves a crack—a cat stunned 3 times in total shatters, and its owner loses instantly.

Push, hold your ground, or let them push you? Every push is both attack and defense.

How to Win

Completely surround your opponent's cat (or connected group) with your cats or the board's edge

Stun an opponent's cat 3 times to shatter it
