You're the Tigers. You've got a perfect domino, the numbers line up, the spot is right there and the Snakes just covered it. On their last turn. While smiling at you, you can feel it from behind your screen.
Welcome to Kumata.
This is a game about clans, Monkeys, Snakes, Toucans and Tigers, battling for dominance across a vibrant jungle grid. Each turn, you pick one of your dominoes and place it on the board, covering matching values and slowly building a layered, chaotic, gorgeous landscape of tiles that climbs higher and higher as the game goes on.
It sounds simple but it's not. Or it is… and that's exactly the trap.
Every domino you play has to match the values it covers. Every domino your rivals play might bury the points you were counting on. You can stack pieces on top of each other, turning the board into a three-dimensional puzzle where height actually matters. Plant your totem on a high-stacked domino and it scores bonus points but use it too early and you've wasted your one big move.
Timing is at the heartbeat of Kumata: knowing when to strike, when to block, when to climb. The board shifts every single turn, and the plan you had two moves ago is already gone.
You're not just thinking, you're building something. The jungle rises off the table. And when the game ends and you count up what's still visible, there's a rush of either triumph or disbelief that hits differently than any scoreboard ever should.
Four clans. One jungle throne. There is only one way to find out if you have what it takes!

Kumata: Zunaj je džungla!
Vi ste Tigri. Imate popolno domino, številke se poravnajo, mesto je točno tam in Kače so ga ravnokar pokrile. V svojem zadnjem obratu. Medtem ko se vam smehljajo, lahko to čutite izza zaslona.
Dobrodošli v Kumati.
To je igra o klanih, opicah, kačah, tukanih in tigrih, ki se borijo za prevlado v živahni džungli. Vsak krog izberete eno od svojih domin in jo postavite na ploščo, pri čemer prekrijete ujemajoče se vrednosti in počasi gradite večplastno, kaotično, čudovito pokrajino ploščic, ki se z napredovanjem igre vzpenja vse višje.
Sliši se preprosto, ampak ni. Ali pa je ... in prav to je past.
Vsaka domina, ki jo igrate, se mora ujemati z vrednostmi, ki jih pokriva. Vsaka domina, ki jo igrajo vaši tekmeci, vam lahko izniči točke, na katere ste računali. Figure lahko zlagate eno na drugo in tako ploščo spremenite v tridimenzionalno sestavljanko, kjer je višina dejansko pomembna. Postavite svoj totem na visoko zloženo domino in s tem boste dobili dodatne točke, če pa ga uporabite prezgodaj, boste zapravili svojo veliko potezo.
Čas je bistvo igre Kumata: vedeti, kdaj udariti, kdaj blokirati, kdaj plezati. Plošča se premika vsako potezo in načrt, ki ste ga imeli pred dvema potezama, je že izginil.
Ne samo razmišljaš, ampak nekaj gradiš. Džungla se dviga z mize. In ko se igra konča in prešteješ, kar je še vidno, te preplavi bodisi zmagoslavje bodisi nejevera, ki udari drugače, kot bi jo kdajkoli morala imeti katera koli tabla z rezultati.
Štirje klani. En džungelski prestol. Obstaja samo en način, da ugotoviš, ali imaš, kar je potrebno!
