Plot

The story starts with a group of moles moved to the Mole Manor from the Black Forest to live a happy life through construction and hard work. However, an evil mole wizard named Kula (alternatively spelt Kura) has destroyed their village, and thus Uncle Bohi (Chinese: 菩提大叔) and Mason (Chinese: 梅森) decided to rebuild the Mole Manor with the help of the new player.[5]

Gameplay

The gameplay is extremely similar to Smurfs' Village. Players plant and then collect crops after a certain period of time.[5] To manage the crops, moles are needed to till the fields. A new mole is added each time a new house is built in the village;[5] one mole is needed to complete each task, for example, building the aforementioned houses.[5] However, completing the tasks takes time (up to one day), and thus the players may choose to instantly complete a task by spending a virtual currency known as "Supershells".[5] There are also mini-games to be played in the characters' homes, for example, a fruit-slicing game that is very similar to Fruit Ninja.[5]

Reception

Reviews noted its similarity with Smurfs Village.[5] MonsterFreeApps said "It’s one of the best free iPhone apps that I’ve come across in a while."[6]
