Gameplay

The gameplay is extremely similar to Smurfs' village. Players plant and then collect crops after a certain period of time.[5] In order to manage the crops, though, Moles are needed to till the fields. One new mole is added each time a new house is built in the village.[5] For each task a mole is also needed to complete it, for example building the aforementioned houses.[5] However, completing the tasks take time (up to one day) and thus the players may choose to instantly completed by spending a virtual currency, known as "Supershells".[5] There are also mini-games to be played in the characters' homes, for example a fruit-slicing game very similar to Fruit Ninja.[5]

Plot

An evil mole wizard named Kula (alternatively spelt Kura) has destroyed the village of Uncle Bodhi (Chinese: 菩提大叔) and Mason (Chinese: 梅森), and thus they must rebuild their community with the help of the player.[5] Molele (Chinese: 摩乐乐), a young mole, is chosen by destiny to protect the village.[6]

Reception

Reviews noted its similarity with Smurfs Village.[5] MonsterFreeApps said "It’s one of the best free iPhone apps that I’ve come across in a while."[7]
