Mouse Trap gave player's a greater sense of power over their fate, and when Coleco was hunting for licenses that would compliment its [[ColecoVision]] system, they saw Mouse Trap (as well as [[Lady Bug]]) as good competition to Atari's [[Ms. Pac-Man]].  Coleco proceeded to develop and manufacture the game for their own system, as well as port it to [[Intellivision]], and to the [[Atari 2600]] which naturally saw a rather crippled conversion of the game due to the lack of available button inputs.  While the ColecoVision and Intellivision relied on the number pads attached to the controllers, the Atari 2600 version distinguished between long and short button presses.

It's not easy being a mouse that loves cheese.  Especially when your greatest source of cheese is contained in the alleys where the alley cats roam.  But your no ordinary mouse.  You have abilities.  Like the ability to open and close the many doors found throughout the alley.  And the more extraordinary ability to transform into a dog by eating dog bones.  If that weren't enough, there's also the giant hawk to watch out for.
