Good summary, but you did miss one rule. When the alien is crying in the bathtub, you can still trigger the trap. If you choose to do so, you can place any opponent mouse in the trap area. If you successfully trigger the trap and capture the opponent, it starts the World War Round (WWR). In the WWR, you will need the RISK expansion pack to resolve who will ultimately lose their next turn (and any cheese they might have). I always thought it was kinda crummy of Hasbro to not include the RISK expansion along with the base Mouse Trap game, but I guess that's how companies make money now-a-days.
It can be a hassle but you can roughly simulate the WWR with a game of Jenga instead.
Failing that, you can also use the Number Chooser as a six-sided die (a little unintuitive I know), and declare the person with the highest (random, not chosen!) roll the winner. If there is a tie, you can resolve it with a thumb war.
Just….No….No…
Never knew this thank you
They've updated this game quite a bit since the 90s version I last played. The mice back then were much less aerodynamic and would routinely miss the basket.
I swear that one day I will actually play these games with these rules.
I got about halfway thru this video before i realized i was being trolled...
I always thought the point was to build the trap and see if releasing the marble actually activated the cage. I never understood why they included the cheese slices, the movement chooser, or the circuit of spaces around the trap. It makes a lot more sense now that I know you're supposed to simulate the marble's travel. Thank you!
Stumbled upon this video trying to learn how to play Mouse Trap. We were all in for a bit of the video but became suspicious when he said, “Use the number chooser to choose the number of spaces you want your mouse to move.” 🤔 Then we lost it when he physically pretended to move the marble down the slope and then threw the marble at the see saw. 😂 Best tutorial ever! We ended up watching it twice!
That opening line was said with such conviction it is now canon within Mouse Trap lore.
It’s a good thing the moon is now safe for humans, visitors in the past had to wear bulky clothing and barely leave the house to stay safe.
Ezra Clark but what about those 13 people who died because the moon authorities wouldn't let their rocket land for fourteen days, and because gravity is so strong out there, they burned up all their fuel trying to stay aloft and crashed?
“The tallest player goes first.”
*Everyone is the same height*
Then you all start simultaneously, the same with Monopoly.
We had this game in elementary school and never had enough time to get past building the machine. Now I know what I missed out on! I should get a copy of this fantastic game.
What’s Funny Is That The Real Rules Are COMPLETELY Different.
This makes so much more sense than when I was trying to work out how this game relates to the Agatha Christie play.
Here's all you need to know about how to play Mouse Trap. You roll your dice, you move your mice. Nobody gets hurt.
Thank you Mr Tomb. This game is not for me, though as it is too unbalanced (pun not intended). Due to the chlorophyll used in the paint, Greenland is heavier than the other countries and as such has a better chance of winning when flung into the trap. This is also historically immaculate as Greenland weighs much less than the other countries, especially on the moon.
Davie Columbus and I are great friends.
Oh that's cool because I thought we were great friends too. I mean you said it yourself and it made me feel good for once. I just... I just need some time... by myself...
*Hello bathtub my old friend*
I just spent 5 minutes watching this trying to remember how to play it with my 4-year-old toddler, thanks for nothing
Quick question: If today is opposite day, does the shortest player go first or the tallest player go last?
No
So glad that you highlighted the moon cheese receptacle
I have this game i got it year's ago my family doesn't play games board games anymore cause we end up fighting and one person crying so its been not touched for a few years we have played 😂
I hope both sides of your pillow is warm when you go to bed tonight
Go Greenland! You need to sell a "All in all, this game is a blast to play" t-shirt.
Way better than the actual rules
Great videos. Keep up the good work, Dave.
I've always wanted to know how to play this game. Thanks, Jeff!
This isn’t how you play it
I need to learn how to play “Coup” PLEASE HELP!
Back when i played this there was no game just the mooncheese alien trap. Always felt a bit too easy.
Wow, greenland is a superpower
Ya catch mice,not catch the human. It’s colored green because he got sick for swimming too much.
Is this the actual rules?
Yes
ABSOLUTELY NOT.
Number Chooser.. so thats what this cube is called! Tank you
Do the right rule's that NO

Im so confused
These rules are legit… Follow them very closely!!
I want what he is smoking
Bruh you obviously don’t know how to play mouse trap you’re making up your own rules
Are you smoking meth? Moon cheese and aliens?!
The only comment that makes sense what am I watching this is not how I played
You made this your way not the games way
what the hell is this?!!?
Nice rules... Maybe we can teach the kids the correct way to play this game. And maybe explain to everyone that you’ve made your own rules so the people who have never played this game before aren’t misled.
uhm that’s not how you play it.
What the hell is this??? Aliens??? Dude, I just wanted my kids to learn to play Mouse Trap! DISLIKE!
His talking absolute BS this isn't how you play to the game
He thinks he’s being cute, not accepted.
