The arcade version of Mouse Trap was made by Exidy. This version was made by Coleco. I also own the Colecovision Mouse Trap which is superior.<BR>You control a mouse. You must eat mazes of cheese and dog biscuits. After eating a dog biscuit, gently tap the joystick button and you'll temporarily turn from a mouse to a dog. You can then eat the cats. Hit the joystick button more firmly to open the doors in the maze.<BR>When you eat every piece of cheese and the dog biscuits, you clear a maze. The Colecovision and arcade Mouse Traps have hawks. The Atari 2600 version doesn't. But that's not a bad thing.<BR>Mouse Trap didn't suck but the Atari 2600 Pac-man was better. It was easier and more fun. I give the Atari 2600 MT a 3.
