How to play Mole Bop
Mole Bop is a lively reflex game for all ages. A garden has nine holes, and cheeky moles pop up from them at random. Tap or click each mole before it ducks back down. You have thirty seconds, and the moles get faster and appear more often as the clock runs down.
Each mole you bop is worth one point. Golden stars are rarer and worth three points, so be quick when you see one. Bombs also pop up now and then: hitting a bomb costs five points, so look before you tap.
On a computer you can play with the number keys. The keys 1 to 9 match the holes the same way as a number pad: 7, 8 and 9 are the top row, 4, 5 and 6 the middle and 1, 2 and 3 the bottom row. Pressing any number key also starts a game. On phones and tablets, simply tap the holes; the targets are large and easy to hit.
Keep your eyes on the middle of the garden rather than chasing one hole; you will spot new moles faster. Your best score is saved in this browser so you can try to beat it.
