About this game

The Mole in the Hole sends little plastic moles burrowing through a maze of tunnel tiles that keeps collapsing behind them. You race to be first home, but the board itself works against everyone, as tiles get removed and the safe paths shrink round by round. It plays fast, looks charming with its underground tunnel tiles, and keeps the tension high right up to the final dash. A gentle, silly race that is simple enough for young kids but still fun enough that adults will happily play along.
