Rating: 5/5
Genre: ActionTake control of a farmer and protect your carrots from a tenacious gopher, as the title suggests. The gopher will try to dig holes and get outside to eat the farmer's carrots, which are 3 to be exact. The farmer closes the holes the gopher digs with a shovel and he can also smack him if he gets above ground. If all of the carrots are eaten, you lose. I found the game kind of bad for two reasons. 1: You can only close the holes of the gopher if they are connected to the outer ground, which is logical, but this way you have to wait for the gopher to make a move, which brings us to the second flaw: The gopher's movement is completely unpredictable, sometimes he may expand his underground lair, while other times he may dig holes to the outside like crazy. The animations of the farmer and the gopher are pretty well made though and the game, despite its flaws, can still be fun to play, so I would recommend to give it a shot to see if you like it.
