Description

??????????????????? (Kumakiti family no saiko no teatime) (Kmakici Family's Greatest Teatime) is a card game from Japan featuring a family of soft toys lead by a bear, Kmakici. It includes a dolphin, a squid and a rock band of rabbits. The family are created by an artist Raityo Tsume (????) and are popular in Japan in SNS messaging apps.

The various characters in the Kmakici family are on the cards in different combinations. Players draw and play cards to the table from a hand of three, trying to build sets of five different characters. If a player places a card which completes a set of five, they draw a token from the end of a line.

The tokens show a grilled steak initially, but on the hidden side are sweets, cakes and teatime treats. Players are trying to get four different treats to win the game outright.

However, if a player cannot or will not play a card, they draw a steak, which, being unsuitable for a tea party, counts as negative points. If all the tokens are claimed without a direct winner, then the player with fewest steaks wins.

Whilst the game is aimed squarely at young children, a Japanese reviewer found the game to be more complex and challenging than expected.

The publisher says:
Let's start a great teatime with our friends.

In this game, you have to collect five different characters on the field. When it is your turn to play, you draw a card from the deck and put up to three cards from your hand on the field. However, only one card of the same type of character can be played on the field.

If you manage to get the fifth character on the field, you get the candy on the back of the chip.

The chips are laid out in a straight line, steak side first, and are taken in the order in which they are laid out during the game.

If you don't have any cards to play or don't want to play, you will have to take the steak (negative points).

If a player is able to collect four different sweets, that player wins at that moment, and if all the chips are gone, the player with the least steak wins.
