    In the arcade version, you had to maneuver Mappy through a building.
    Movement was by running left or right, falling down shafts, and
    bouncing on trampolines at points in the shafts (which would then
    propel you up to the top unless you moved left or right into a
    corridor).  There were enemies to avoid, treasures to collect, and a
    "weapon" or two (opening a door to hit the enemy behind it, and I also
    remember something about a traveling impact thing).

270.2my sons opinionFSTTOO::HEMONDTHE AMERICAN HARPThu Apr 27 1989 12:5412
Rented this from our local video store last weekend.  My 9 year old
    loves it.  It sounds similar to the arcade game, in that you must
    get Mappy Mouse through the different levels.  At the end of each
    level you have a time limit to get to his "girlfriend"?  I didn't
    play with it, but my son now wants it for his upcoming birthday
    so it must be allright.  He normally plays with Super Mario II,
    Zelda, Gunsmoke and Mickey Mousecapades.  I guess this is similar.
    
    
    Hope this helps,

270.3Once lost, now foundSCOVAX::MONOCCHIWed May 03 1989 12:4210
    I remember this game, and if its the same one I am thinking of, it was
    one of my favorite games. I only saw it in one arcade and I am not sure
    who made it. The character is a mouse I believe, and the villan, a cat.
    If this game is anything like the arcade version, its sure to be a
    winner. The previous note provides an accurate description from what I
    can remember. I'll  have to keep an eye out for this one.
