Mushroom Madness 3 is a cute, flash mole-masher game with vivid colors and extensive game-play. Defend mushrooms from hungry critters by whacking them with a slipper, shooting them with a gun or blowing them up with dynamite, how fun!

There are many other weapons you come across as you progress in the game, along with upgrades to make them deadlier. The game has over 100 levels along with bonus features and achievements to keep you occupied for hours. Of course, when creating an account you can save your progress and continue the adventure later.

The animation is smooth and lively, with a professional feel and look. Everything on the screen is instantly responsive, so you will not run into any glitching or having to wait long load times. As this is the third installment, along with updates, the game is polished to a tee. Flash games do not get much more lively than this one.

The game-play is simple to pick up for people of all ages, and the bright cartoon-ish colors will make any young player attentive and entertained. It may be a tad repetitive for older players, but with high scores and achievements included, it gives the players something to shoot for (literally and figuratively). If the game is too difficult for you, Kongregate does have walk-through videos included on their website which may be quite useful for some people.

Mushroom Madness 3 is a very advanced example of what Flash can achieve in the hands of a strong programmer. The game feels as if it was made for a console system such as Nintendo, with how polished and smooth it feels to play. Even if the game-play is not your cup of tea, you can appreciate how well-made the game is overall. While it may appeal more to a younger audience, it can be a fun time for players of all ages.
