Whack-a-mole was the first computer game I ever owned and I used to spend hours playing it on my VIC 20. Whack-a-mole is one of those repetitive yet extremely satisfying games; the goal is to whack with the aid of a hammer the little moles' heads back into the ground as soon as they try surfacing. This alternative USB version, simply known as whack-it, is built on the same principle as the original game (which was an arcade game and not my VIC 20 version). The colored heads (or whatever they are supposed to represent) light up to indicate that they need to be pushed back down by tapping your finger(s) on it.

I would have to try it out to see how playable it is, but I have a feeling that I could be spending hours tapping those shining red, green and yellow blobs down.
