Meurimueng-rimueng-do should not be confused with another Sumatran game with a very similar name, meurimueng-rimueng peuet ploh as they are unrelated. The former is a leopard game, whereas the latter is related to Alquerque. Both games, however, are played by the Acehnese. While Meurimueng-rimueng-do is usually described as a leopard game, the leopards are sometimes known as tigers instead. (en)
