Time to clean up the neighborhood! Move the player to the left and the right, hitting the moles that appear. Nintendo first began releasing the Game & Watch series in 1980. This collection of games was available on portable LCD devices, and each title featured a game and a clock. Each Game & Watch title features two modes of play: GAME A (normal difficulty) and GAME B (more advanced play). While some controls have been changed in the DSiWare version to better suit the Nintendo DSi system, the appearance of the game itself has not been altered.
Time to clean up the neighborhood! Move the player to the left and the right, and hit the moles that pop out of holes in the ground. Moles appear from four holes in GAME A and from five holes in GAME B. The moles in GAME B move faster than those in GAME A, and they also appear more frequently. Earn one point for each mole hit, or receive a mistake icon for each missed hit. Receive three mistake icons, and it's game over!

The player can move left or right between three positions. Moles will burrow out of the ground in five positions, displayed as three dirt patches. The player must line up their hammer with a mole, where it will be automatically hit. If a mole is not hit within a second of appearing, the player will get a miss. If the player gets three misses in one session, they lose. Moles will take a longer time to appear in Game A compared to Game B.
