About this game
Guide Mole underground after an earthquake separates his family. Eat all the food in a maze and bring Keeko to the door to clear the stage. Digging opens a route, but the space left behind becomes a hole that Mole can fall into. Mole cannot dig upward, so ladders are important when arranging a return path. Rocks fall after he passes beneath them, changing the available passages. Plan the order of collection before committing to a descent; taking fewer steps also improves the stage’s step-point award.

AI review
AI reviews are subjective assessments, not player ratings. See each review for its evidence and limitations.Published date:
Digging changes the route you will need later.
Upward digging is unavailable, so collecting one item must be weighed against keeping a ladder route to the next.
Strengths
- Falling rocks make the order of traversal matter.
Who it is for: Players who enjoy route-order puzzles and minimizing steps.
