The premise, in the publisher's words

Whac-a-Mole is coming to your copy of Microsoft Windows! Watch in wonder as your mild-mannered mouse is transformed into the proverbial blunt object. Slam the enormous hammer down with a click of the mouse as you prowl the mole-infested landscape. Grit your teeth, take aim and BOP moles in a split second as they jump and taunt you to take your best shot! Roar as you score a direct hit, triggering a chorus of cartoon sound effects and hilarious animation! Unlike passive screen savers or intellectual adventures, Whac-a-Mole delivers pure entertainment as you absent-mindedly BASH devilish rodents.
