Games worth discovering
Game's easy to understand alright, but makes me think of who the game is for...

As simple as board game gets, Mouse Trap definitely is one of them. (Also the game just got available on mobile)
It has vibrant yet simple Graphics. Oh keep in mind "simple" is gonna come up a lot in this review. That means the performance is definitely going to be good, anything can run this. Despite the bare bone graphics I'm surprised that sometimes the visibility is actually not good. For example, selecting who to steal result in this top down view of the board and the mouse to select is very small and almost unreadable, I hope this can be fixed.
Gameplay is simple, easy to understand, and ... Sadly, it means doesn't much is happening. Other than selecting where to go, or who to steal, there isn't much decision or skill happening at all. All goes down on RNG and even worse when the AI just out of nowhere want to bring you down so low just because you exist and select Hard difficulty.
I mean, I don't fully understand the demographic. I guess this game is for very small child, overall Hasbro is the publisher. Unlike the other game "The Game of Life" which still has some gameplay complexity and decision making, this game is very much just tap and pray.
Well, there aren't much that's for sure. Other than 1 map and 1 gamemode, your selection of customization isn't there at all if you didn't purchase in-game items as well. Thankfully I use Play Pass so all unlocked by default for me. But if I were paying this game then still have to buy in-game for basic customization... Meh. At least there has to be something excel in gameplay side of features to make our purchase worthy.
Conclusion:
Well if you have a small kid that wants to play a game, but you afraid it's unsupervised content will lead your kid to land of ash, this game is a safe bet. And you can play it with your kid too! But if you plan this to play yourself? Well, get The Game of Life instead.
This game is not that good for me, but still playable.
I didn't really like this game, it lags so much and it doesn't have a map, I didn't know where should go. zZz
I also don't like that the colors fade when I'm running out of life. The game becomes too dark even though I adjusted the brightness of my device to high. But the graphics are good, it's pixelated.
It is also easy to control. I immediately figured it out even though it doesn't provide instructions. The controllers are also placed well.

It's a basic game and for me, it's not a great game, maybe for some others who like easy games.
The animation is old school. They should improve their graphics to impress the people or the players who saw this in a Play Store. But I think there is someone who still likes this kind of game.

First thing I'd like to point out is you can't actually move around. There are little buttons you push that will take you to different rooms/different scenes. Even though you can't move around freely its STILL hard to see what you can and can't interact with. The puzzles aren't too bad in themselves but they are just way too confusing. For example ill get a sequence of numbers but there will be 3 places I can put numbers in to. The graphics and art design are pretty great, it really is different from other games. Now the worst part of this game is that an advertisement will ALWAYS be at the bottom of the screen. Even when you're doing the escape room.
