    I have a very high level of regret that I purchased this extremely poor quality game.

    I had hoped for an intellectual strategic puzzler but instead I got a hyperlinear mobile-looking quasi-puzzle borefest. I cannot understand any praise this game receives. The levels are incredibly limited, tediously designed, and monotonous. The game utterly lacks charm. The main character doesn't speak, instead preferring to constantly gesture crazily like he's possessed by Cat Satan. The mice are too stupid to be lab rats. One block up, 3 blocks down, and walk back and forth otherwise. Now go place some tetris pieces in exactly the order that the developers intended so the mice can pick up all the powerups and reach the platform. Who likes that? A puzzle game is supposed to offer puzzles. This game just wants simple sequence recreation. If you find this game engaging or challenging then I can only suggest less medication, or possibly a return to primary school.

    After about 20 levels I ran into a game ending critical flaw wherein icons in the game could no longer be clicked on. This completely prevented me from continuing the game, and for that I'm actually grateful, as there was no way I was getting my money's worth from Mousecraft even if I played it for the rest of my life. Even on mobile this game would be below average. It's 15 USD at retail and it's not worth 3 USD. Don't make the stupid mistake that I made and purchase it. Just leave it there on the shelf. It looks far, far more interesting than it actually is.    … Expand

    Mousecraft is the lovechild of Tetris and Lemmings, although it's nowhere near as addicting. It's a creative idea, with fun mechanics, and well worth a try, but the difficulty goes up and down too rapidly, because the game introduces new mechanics a bit too often.

    MouseCraft is a puzzle game “like they used to make”, without portal guns and time manipulation. Its only downside is a badly-designed UI.

    It's smart, it's humorous and the only thing it really lacks is a unique charm. Its replayability is a great boon, though. [Issue#244]
