Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
We played this for a hour this is a good game.
It is very fun and enjoyable to play and it takes off stress and makes you laugh we highly recommend this very fun game.
The reason we like it is because its reall y fun and good animation for a mobile game.
Its good and all but its lacking replay ability, what does it need? New map. New designs. Instead of like the toy soldier flipping into the air and landing why not something like a rocket ship taking off but crash landing. New themed maps will increase playability.
UPDATE: we recently played the version of Mouse Trap on Wii as part of the Hasbro Family Game Night Collection. Dear lord is that version horrible! Compared to it, this version is extremely favorable. Despite the Wii version more resembling the board game, its slow, tedious, and unenjoyable. At least this version adds charm and better appearances, as well as updating the gameplay. We have raised the Star rating. Sorry for our earlier harsh comments. OBSOLETE REVIEW: While there don't seem to be any glitches or errors in the code, and while the game runs fluidly, this is a very lackluster game. It's over in about 10 minutes and it's not the setup of the original mechanics, nor is it the way the game used to be played. The animation of the trap is a one trick pony that gets old very fast and would only remain entertaining for a child who is easily distracted. It's hard to believe this was developed by a studio that did so well with many other beloved board games. We'll keep it on our account for future children/nieces/nephews but this will not be a regular play for us.
Game so short see they not fix getting more cheese in the game. They should make game longer.
The look of the game is really appealing, but theres not much to it. You dont get to build the trap yourself, and another $9 for accessories is ridiculous. A little more interactivity would definitely make it worth it.
Thisbe game was 4 dollars so worth it.
We were wondering would it be too much of us to ask but to the developers could you guys please implement daily objectives or missions such as tasks so we could also gain more cheese as a bonus and just add more mouse trap boards to play on to keep the game interesting just our thoughts We love youre game btw.
We think the app would be improved if you added the actual mouse trap games. Maybe like different game modes or something. You know, with like the crank, the hand, and the board style. This is a recommendation, not a demand. Please keep updating this game as it gets more awesome.
More needs to be added to this game like challenges or something.
Cant play with our friends online.
Played this game as a child. Very cool game.
Our inner child is so happy right now it like something we never knew we wanted.
Please download it its worth it.
Good thing we pre-ordered this game because it was 2.99 now its 3.99.
Weird how our games of Life, Monopoly, and Clue are all connected on the same bubble play account, but we cant Sign in with Apple on to Mouse Trap. Kind of annoying. But it just got released so Ill give it some time to mature.
Board could be a little longer or better yet be the actual game. 1 collect cheese on the board. 2 land on a space that builds the trap 3 yet again actually have the game play by the board game rules.
We pre ordered the game and when we tried to install it tried charging us full price.
