Whac A Mole Game By JOEY on Oct 17, 2008 - Updated Sep 18, 2011

I work in a day program setting with disabled folks who really enjoy games that are well thought out and created well. At first this game was pretty popular but it became old hat really quickly. Milton Bradley usually does a better job than this and when you consider the price tag for this game is about twenty dollars or so I have to say they really fell on their faces on this game.

You basically have four moles and you hit them with a plastic mallet when their helmets light up. They duck down slightly into their holes when you hit them from the force of it but I do not really feel there is much realism or thought involved in this creation.

They could and should have done a better job with this game. The idea of it is good, but you have to follow thru with a quality job as far as creating the game and thats where they quite frankly stink. They actually talk to you at times when you are playing but they do not speak with much volume to them. There is a volume control but you just cannot get it loud enough to really have a positive effect.

Milton Bradley, you have made many a good game in years gone by but you missed on this one, and thats the name of this tune.
