Mappy Description

You are a mouse in a house of burglar-cats intent on recovering their stolen loot. You get from floor to floor by jumping on trampolines. Various doors are your only defense against the cats.

Game Introduction

The game music appears to be based on ragtime. There are a total of fifteen rounds in the game, after which it wraps back to the first round. The design was created by Namco and licensed to Bally Midway, who built it.

The player controls Mappy, the “Micro Police, a police-mouse whose job is to collect valuables from a cat’s house one has to surmise that he is retrieving stolen goods.

In hot pursuit of our hero is a gang of five pink cats called Meowsky or “Naughty Folks” and a large red fat cat called Goro or “Boss The Big Bit”.

Cheats, Tricks, Bugs, and Easter Eggs

Mappy can sometimes pass through Goro without being killed when Goro leaves a stolen item.
