As king, guide your loyal mice followers across the cafeteria floors to scavenge for cheeses, filling your den to the brim with delicious offerings. Collect a plethora of cheese, build your throne, and take over the food court... but watch out! You aren't the only rodent in town; you'll need to protect your troops from pesky rats as they explore.
