Every level of this game is the same: a bunch of idiots with no attention span or patience run around like they're on crack, which about half the time makes the level impossible to solve because they get the other mice killed by accident.
I don't think some of the mice get killed by accident... posted by lizarrd at 10:07 PM on June 20, 2010
This game is pathetically bad. Please refrain from posting rubbish like this and then get your friends to "favorite" it, at least until you get a vague clue about game design. posted by gnosys at 10:22 PM on June 20, 2010 [1 favorite]
The Youtube video is hysterical, mostly because I'm imagining all the players screaming like crazy German children. posted by Cool Papa Bell at 10:42 PM on June 20, 2010 [1 favorite]
My previous comment was hasty, and based on two attempts to try the game, in both of which I died before I could do anything and I just saw a dozen or so mice run back and forth. I just saw a youtube video which looked like actual gameplay, so it is possible that it isn't as bad as I thought.
I still think it isn't worth wasting any time on based on the video, but my previous comment was overly harsh. posted by gnosys at 10:44 PM on June 20, 2010
Man, someone - possibly a MeFite, since their comment didn't include 'fag' or 'jew' - said I was slow on the uptake since I waited until the rest of the mice did their lemming run before going for the cheese myself. Jerks. posted by Alvy Ampersand at 10:53 PM on June 20, 2010
I imagine this is probably a training video for leading small children in emergency situations. I should probably practice our fire drills more, seems like most of my class would end up cheeseless. posted by JimmyJames at 11:07 PM on June 20, 2010

oh man it was just my turn to be shaman and I had no idea what to do. I just learned that I needed to HOLd the mouse button to place an object. I'm sorry! posted by Phantomx at 1:54 AM on June 21, 2010
If you're getting a connection error, try making an account. This is... too much fun. And a hell of a lot better in the mefi room than a random one posted by danny the boy at 3:13 AM on June 21, 2010
I love the idea of this game, but man I am terrible at it. posted by juliplease at 3:20 AM on June 21, 2010
I just spent like two hours in the mefi room with all y'all and had way too much fun. posted by Joey Michaels at 3:47 AM on June 21, 2010

This is actually quite a good game. As soon as you join, type "/room MeFi" and you'll join some mice that are actually trying to get the cheese. :) posted by Malor at 5:17 AM on June 21, 2010
yup, this is definitely a fun game with mefites (aka passionata)

Hah, I lured Passionata to her little rodent death twice. :) posted by Malor at 6:33 AM on June 21, 2010

So true, Malor, you seemed to have some kind of Jedi power that allowed you to slyly skitter past the swirling death paddles -- the rest of us went splattering into space. Oh, the agony!!
... maybe an epic poem, Babblesort? posted by Surfurrus at 9:54 AM on June 21, 2010
I believe you should submit this to the bad sex in fiction contest.
Little rodent, not little death, and it wasn't fictional. :)
I haven't been able to reconnect today. They seem completely slammed. posted by Malor at 12:21 PM on June 21, 2010
