How it plays

Players scurry their mice around the board, adding parts to the trap as they go. Bit by bit the machine takes shape, a chain reaction waiting for someone to start it. Once it is complete, you can spring it on an opponent's mouse that is sitting in the wrong spot. Trapped mice leave the game, and the last one still running free wins.

It is the game many parents and grandparents remember from their own childhoods, and it still draws a crowd when the trap goes off. We suggest it for two to four players from age six, especially on sleepovers and rainy days indoors.
