About

In Cheeky Mouse, you must defend your hoard of cheese from waves of ravenous mice. You are armed with a hammer with which to splat the aforementioned mice, as they invade your house to abscond with your dairy products.

Each level has 32 mice which, if left unmolested, will make their way to the floor, spend some time gnawing a hole, enter it, take some cheese and return out of the hole back to its lair. You may interrupt these plans by clonking the furry interlopers as they enter or leave the hole. The level ends once all of the mice have been eradicated. You start the game with three lives, which may be lost by either running out of cheese, or touching mystery pests which appear after every 40 mice killed. Cheese is replenished after each life is lost, but not between levels. Each level gets progressively more difficult as the mice get faster, there are more mystery pests, and there is more cover for the mice making their movements seem more unpredictable.
