The briefing

About this game

Hopping Mappy is a platform game and sequel to Mappy. Players control Mappy, the Micro Police mouse, as he uses a pogo stick to move through compact checkerboard stages while evading pink cats called Meowkies and the zigzagging Goro.

Each regular round requires collecting eight treasures. A bonus round instead focuses on gathering balloons. Mappy can bounce in four directions and accelerate to move twice as fast, while the cats increase their speed after a “Hurry Up” warning.
