Whack-a-Mole

Sixty seconds, nine holes and a lot of moles. How many can you hit?

How to play

  • Press Start. Moles pop up from the nine holes – tap or click them before they hide.
  • A mole is worth 10 points and a gold star 30. Hitting a bomb costs 20 points.
  • The round lasts 60 seconds, and the moles appear faster and stay up for less time as the clock runs down.

Tips

  • Rest your eyes on the middle hole so you can see all nine at once instead of chasing each mole.
  • Gold stars disappear quickest – they are worth the risk.
  • Look before you tap in the last 15 seconds, when bombs are easy to hit by mistake.
  • On a phone or tablet, two thumbs are faster than one finger.
