How to play

  • Each player selects a mouse and places it in its coloured corner of the game board
  • Give each player a Super Mouse card
  • Players take turns rolling the die and selecting that number of coding cards
  • Encourage players to lay out their coding cards in a sequence to map their mouse’s path. The path should take them closer to the cheese!
  • Players then move their mouse according to the steps in that sequence
  • If a mouse lands on some cheese, that player takes it
  • Players clear their cards after each sequence ready for their next go
  • Play continues until all cheese wedges have been collected
  • The player who collects the most cheese is the winner
  • Enhance the game play with:
    • Maze walls – roll these on the die and place a wall anywhere you want on the game board to block your opposition
    • Warp zone spots – instantly jump to another warp zone spot in one move if it will benefit you
    • Super mouse – Can be used only once in a game! Use this card to jump over a maze wall
