Description
You control Mappy, a police-mouse whose job is to collect valuables (consumer electronics) from a cat's house. You are being pursued by a gang of five pink cats. Doors are your only defense against the cats. You get from floor to floor by jumping on one of the trampolines.
Points are earned by recovering stolen goods. Other ways of earning points are bouncing on a trampoline, putting cats in the microwave, striking a cat with a door, striking cats with a bell, retrieving a treasure from the Boss cat Goro or dropping cats through a hole in the floor.

Trivia
Filed under the 'Idiot decision' department: This game was distributed in the arcades in the U.S. by
Bally Midway, the same people who distributed
Namco's Pac-Man. It never made much dent in the U.S. market. Why is this an 'idiot decision'? Because
Namco approached
Bally Midway with 2 games and allowed them first pick.
Bally Midway only wanted to release 1 so they selected the maze-based
Mappy and the other game went to
Atari. The other game was the top grossing game of its year,
Pole Position.
