Elefun & Friends: Mouse Trap (2013)

About this game

A new and simplified version for the famous game Mouse Trap using the characters from Elefun & Friends. The trap is built at the setup and, although different, has the same basic elements of the original. You do not have to collect cheese anymore and the movement is determined by a spin wheel with three colors. The board is smaller and composed by a path of colors where some of the spaces have also a boot indicating that the player may activate the trap and try do capture a mouse. The first player to capture a mouse wins the game.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 3.
• Rules load. At 1.0/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 4 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
