Completed with 100 points on all 7 levels. I became aware of Mole Mania via a My Nintendo offer, and after finding from a brief investigation that Shigeru Miyamoto was involved in its development, decided to give the game a try - well, this was a very pleasant surprise! This is a thoroughly charming top-down puzzle game, tasking Monty Mole with navigating through seven levels, each made up of a series of single-room block-pushing and navigation puzzles, but made all the more interesting by the availability of both surface and underground areas to each room. There's a decent but not excessive variety of mechanics at work, and a few secrets scattered around each level to reward exploration. Being a GameBoy game, graphics are simple, but crisp, and there's a catchy soundtrack throughout - overall, a very impressive package!
