When Did Mouse Trap Come Out

Mouse Trap pits 2-4 players against each other as mice trying to navigate through a mousetrap. They build the mousetrap as they move their mice across the board. They also try to collect cheese cards, which allow them to move other mice to cheese wheel which is bait for the trap. Once the mousetrap is constructed, players attempt to capture each others' mice in it by turning the crank, which activates the mousetrap. If the mousetrap doesn't malfunction, the mouse is captured & out of the game.
