Cheeky Mole

Cheeky Mole is a fast whack-a-mole reflex game you play with one thumb.

A cheeky mole pops out of one of nine holes. Tap it before it ducks back down and you score a point. Then it pops up somewhere else, a little faster. Miss it once and the run is over. Simple to learn, hard to master: a quick arcade challenge for your reaction time and hand-eye coordination.

HOW IT PLAYS
- One mole at a time on a 3x3 grid
- The mole shows up only once: be quick or it gets away
- Every hit makes the next mole faster, up to a limit that stays humanly possible
- Tapping an empty hole costs you nothing
- A short guided first run shows you what to do
- The scenery moves from day to sunset to night as your score climbs
- Short runs: perfect for a quick break

SLOW-TIME TIMERS
- If you have a timer, it starts by itself once per run, at a random moment between 50 and 100 points
- For 10 seconds the mole stays out twice as long
- Get timers from the daily bonus, the shop, or by choosing to watch an optional ad

DAILY BONUS
- Play on days in a row: day 3 gives a timer, day 5 gives a life
- Then a new 5-day count begins; miss a day and you go back to day 1
- The daily bonus needs an internet connection

HIGH SCORES AND FRIENDS
- Beat your best score and try to reach 100
- Sign in with Google Play Games for the top 10 leaderboard, plus your own position
- Signing in is optional: you can play without it

GOOD TO KNOW
- Contains ads: a full-screen ad after a finished run (never more than one per minute)
- Optional rewarded ads: watch one to get a free timer
- In-app purchases: extra lives (continue a run once after a miss), timers, and a one-time "Remove ads" purchase that removes the ads between runs
- Leaving the app in the middle of a run ends that run
- The game is in English
