Mouse Trap Board Game

Hasbro's instructions list Mouse Trap for 2 to 4 players. The game is a physical board game with plastic mice and a mechanical trap, not a video game or a real pest-control device. ([Hasbro instructions](https://instructions.hasbro.com/en-gb/instruction/mouse-trap-game))

Players assemble a chain of plastic gadgets on the board, then use the completed mechanism to drop the trap onto a mouse. The fun comes from watching a marble, crank, boot, and other parts pass motion through the chain reaction.

In the classic rules, players add parts when they land on designated build spaces rather than assembling the entire machine before play. The numbered building plan in the Hasbro instructions shows how the pieces fit together.

It combines die-driven movement with decisions about building the mechanism and positioning mice near the trap space. The physical chain reaction creates additional uncertainty because a poorly aligned piece can stop the machine even when the board position is favorable.
