- Recently we learned Ellen has never played vintage board game Mouse Trap -- one eBay transaction later, we're ready to set things right. Expect Machiavellian Mouse Machinery as Luke, Ellen, Mike and Andy turn the crank of destiny.

I've just spent 23 minutes, 15 seconds watching four adults play a board game.
And I LOVED IT.
Hendo9 SO DID I
same
board games are the shit ! you can outgrow them :D
A CHILD'S board game.
@@AFLoneWolf I only see a minimum age no maximum age restrictions
I love how the Oxbox/Oxtra team listened to their fanbase and genuinely made a mouse trap letsplay. Best thing ever.
Now we just need to get Smi7y to do a Solitare Funtage.
It happened my dude
I have seen it, and it is a thing of beauty!
and they did it again and FINALLY let Ellen play KoA
And once again they did it with d &d
You were the best of us, Luke. The best of us.
It's hard to believe this started the path to DnD
@@mightybeastofbengal mind blown. also, watching from the future: the first thing I said to myself, out loud, was "Mike still has that hoodie" :D:D:D
@@mightybeastofbengal I'm proud to be one of the comments OXtra highlighted asking them to play MouseTrap. My life's biggest achievement
Who could've guessed he'd fall down that open manhole cover and be eaten by crocodiles, but it sure was brave of Andy to not dive in after him so he could survive to tell the tale

A little part of me wants the Oxbox/Oxtra team to play one big game of D&D together
M, Personally omg they need to do this
Fred Raney oh my god this needs to happen
Now that you mentioned it a big part of me wants them to play D&D together
Omg please, this has to happen!
M, Personally Oh I hope they see this
Them: "In the game who's actually making this trap?"
Me: "Jane. Duh."
She's just manipulating them into building it themselves.
12:06 absolute gold, specially with the couple of seconds of dead silence
Andy looked like he was
a) in hell
b) so done
c) babysitting children whose favorite game is Mouse Trap and he hates it
d) all of the above
The longer I watch this video, the more I realize how accurate (C) is. XD
I am so sorry HauntedLyre but you were Ellened, it was Actually option F) Andy is actually Jane in disguise and she got bored of the fact that they never figured out it was her.
Oh my gosh, cld1472! You're so right!
cld1472 Of course my next question is, if we've seen options a through d and that's option f... What was option E?
E, annoyed because he had to be a substitute for Jane
I'm assuming Jane isn't in this video because she's busy building a full size replica of this to torture the rest of the oxbox crew if they don't get enough views. With the loser getting sent back to the video mines.
Plot twist: it was actually made by James.
She was the mastermind behind the mouse trap. Forcing them mice into the saw puzzle.
jane isn't there cos its a four person game there are only 4 mice
Duffking well if there's ever a "fan meet up to play games with the crew" you know what's going to happen.
If you look closely at the end you can see the shadow of the human-sized cage Jane built sitting precariously atop the light stand left of frame.

*you're
hunt gaming What!? Next you're going to tell me that my burglar Trap is dangerous.It only has spikes and explosive,it's not that dangerous.
really the best part is when Ellen gets on the cheese square and all the guys glare evilly and address her in the exact same voice and tone spontaneously
I never stop being amazed by the team's ability to improv. Those mouse backstories were gold.
I like how Andy and Mike both had mice with backstories.
But did Luke and Ellen's mice just both get born in the first square of the board, and stay there forever until Andy and Mike's came along?
And what about Jane. Wait... She's totally the cat. Sitting there in the back, waiting for her Luke-warm lunch.
Adam Gierscher Ahhaha, I see what you did there!
Ever since I was a kid, I'd interpreted "Fat cat; go back to start" as "Start fresh with a new mouse character, as your current one is no longer alive."
"I don't know the word for seven!"
Say that again, but slowly.
Coremensch What's in the box!?!?
2:29. Love that subtle Willy Wonka reference Andy. "You get nothing... good day sir"
Andy scepticism about this whole endeavour is great. He's like the older brother who's pretending not to enjoy himself but is secretly having a blast.
What is my life I just watched for adults play a board game for 20 mins,
And I freaking loved it.
Bob Don't argue, just embrace it
What else is there to do?
Dude, I watched Achievement Hunter play a 2 hour 40 minute game of UNO. In fact I watched that video three times. Just go with it.
This comment is 8 months old at the moment, but I just have to........... Four*
There are three kinds of people in the world. The ones who count, and the ones who can't count.
I didn't get the joke at first. then I reread it a few billion times and got it. or was it 4?
Wow. Such an original joke
“All it’ll take is a simple 5, to snuff out your life”
*Rolls a 5*
DAMMIT ANDY!!!
"Swallow your rage and carry on"
Andy 2k17
Good life advice in general tbh
@ 9:06 for those wondering. 😂
Anyone else want to see them play Dungeons and Dragons with Jane as the DM?
So then have them play Paranoia
Ernest Laguardia Oh my god this would awesome
"Board game" how about Dragon Strike?
I can't like this enough!
Ernest Laguardia Again, to the top! They must know what we want them to do!
Turn the crank of destiny! Andy, Luke, Mike and Ellen enter the deadly mechanical maze that is... MOUSE TRAP! (ages 5 years & up). Enjoy, and let us know in the comments if you want team OX to play any other board games (once our heart rates return to a normal resting pace, that is).
You know, after watching this I really think I'd enjoy watching the whole oxcast play board games ever so often!
Cluedo! Oh my god play Cluedo! Or Uno!
PLEASE, do snakes and ladders! Or Super Hero Round Up! Or Cards Against Humanity!
That was actually surprisingly entertaining. Please do more of it. Suggestion: Try The Resistance.
Outside Xtra DO EXPLODING KITTENS WITH IMPLODING KITTENS ADD ON!!
"I *Camembert* it anymore!"
"*Brie* reasonable!"
"*Edam* you!"
You Muensters.
Mark Hashman wat
Saw all those cheese puns, and I couldn't resist adding one of my own.
...Yeah, I know, it's not very Gouda.
There's no point trying to add more cheese puns. The video is a feta-compli.
I can't help but see no-one has seen the connection to miraculous Ladybug with canembert.
szbnahl I wouldn't say that, there's Stiltons to go.
You guys are playing it wrong! Step 1 - build the machine. Step 2 - mess around with it. Step 3 - pack up and forever wonder what the actual rules are
Oh, good. I thought my sisters and I were playing it wrong when we were kids. I was worried for a second.

One, two, Many..
One, two, three, many, many-one, many-two, many-three, many many, many many-one, many many-two, many many-three, many many many, many many many-one, many many many-two, many many many-three, LOTS.
Me and a friend of mine are terrible at miniature golf and regular golf, so we use the one-two-many way of keeping score. We always end up with a score of "many".
I always thought the official Outside Xbox mantra was:
"Stop browsing the Breakfast Menu and come fight for Freedom.
ah I see what Andy means, the mice will be trapped in "Purr-gatory"
foster246 66 or in pur-GATO-ry
After Luke's reactions to Mouse Trap and worrying about the trap going off early, I think the only way forward is to have the team play Buckaroo! Can you imagine? Luke wouldn't be able to keep his cool lol XD
Surprisingly enough this is actually very fun to watch and it is only made better by the fact that the youtube video is interrupted by comercials for alcohol!
Great video guys, maybe you should do more like this.
Mouse tipsy, go back two.
Andy: If you build a mouse trap like this in your house you are definitely a serial killer
God this brings back memories. I got this when I was like 6, and my dad and I put the whole thing together. Then we started playing and realized you were supposed to build it as you went. Later on in life we played with the house rule (mouse rule?), once the entire thing is put together, every "Add a piece" equals "Turn Crank". Incidentally, you can modify it so that after it's built every "Add a piece" = "Take a drink" You'll be Mouse Tipsy in no time!
*This must be a series* Because here are lots of ideas because I love you all. :)
Star Wars Monopoly, Pokemon Monopoly, The Game of Life, Trouble, Candy Land, Shoots and Ladders, Cranium, Chinese Checkers, Guess Who, Cards Against Humanity (and whatever Rooster Teeths version is…), Operation (Just for the Heart Attacks, also I want to see 2 Player Surgeon Simulator on the PS4), Rummy (lots of fun), Attack Uno, Taboo, Mahjong………. I could go on.
Alexandra Lee Reign of Cthulu, Arkham Horror, Eldritch Horror, Fortress America, Betrayal on Hill House, Axis and Allies D-Day
Alexandra Lee please do
Challenge Accepted…
Million Dollars, But
Exploding Kittens, The Voting Game, Mind Job, Disturbed Friends, Twister, Battleship, Clue, Don't Break the Ice, PayDay, Joking Hazard, HotSeat, Superfight….
OMG yes CAH we need this! And Life and Candy Land!
I've found that now that I'm an adult, Life isn't fun anymore. I used to love it. It's a shame.
This needs to become a weekly thing-Outside Xtra plays board games... Next week: Clue!
Or outside xtra plays games that are not video games series,next episode uno or monopoly
Coincidentally the last video from either channel after they break up
Like AVGN does?
Brandon Michael Heimbach That's a great idea!
My parents didnt buy mouse trap claiming it to be too boring, so I will experience mouse trap through outsidexbox
american idiot me too!! nice name btw
I had the game but no one to play with
TOO BORING?! Mouse Trap was my first board game, and I had a blast! Your parents sound like boring people. Not that they are, but they just seem like it.
Living vicariously through Outside Xbox and Outside Xtra.
My sister and I used to play this all the time! Except I don't think we ever actually played one real game; we would just put the trap together and watch it go, over and over again lol
Ellen's reactions to these mouse backstories are on point and Andy seems so angry he's been made to play a board game.
"Insert hand onto rod..."
Yep, this video got very adult very quickly.
Luke decided to let that one slide.
I don't get it, care to explain why that can the taken that way?
+Al Bartolina keep your innocence
GTMaxy94 Not really that innocent but English is not my motger tongue and even though I've been speaking it for a long time I don't get stuff like this
+Al Bartolina ok then...rod=penis. there you go.
I insist you find and play "13 Dead End Drive" If you liked mouse trap you'll love this game! It also has more of a story for Andy
MericSlovaine you can also throw people down stairs!
OMG, I had completely forgotten about that game! It was amazing! (Thank you for the reminder!)
Board James will come for you!
Best idea. Hands down.
...and he will kill you and blame it on the pink phone!
16:47 "I don't know the word for '7'"
S-e-v-a-I-n-t-I-n-e
I love Ellen's "Oh my god guys, that's horrible" face during the mouse baptism scene.
I am watching 4 grown adults play a children's board game...
my life is complete.
Katherine Rodriguez At least it is not a children's card game to determine the ruler of the world.
Betrayal at House on the Hill is awesome, you guys should play that
Honestly, I find these puns to be just grating.
I thought they were Grate
that pun was too cheesy for me
Earth 26 that's the point the reason why they laughed after is because of how cheesy they were
I can't believe I just watched a 23min video of adults playing mouse trap. I loved every minute of it. Tough luck Luke.
What about... a obox+oxtra boardgames lets play channel. Just for the fun of it.
You know. Catan Carcassone, Arkham Horror, Bang, Tzolking. Fun and diverse games out there for they to try and us to hae fun while they screw it up.
This is a glorious idea and it must be brought to fruition!
Also I should be brought in to play as well!
zadel88 Actually they need to have a board games channel where viewers get to bring a game to the studio for the let's play.
My first board game I got as an adult was... Mage Knight... Yay instructions!!!
...just like AVGN does with Board James.
Betrayal at House on the Hill would be amazing. Great game plus the chance of the villain hell-bent on taking over the world NOT being Jane...
Where's Jane?! Right....she'd probably just orbital laser the mice
Right? She's clearly the diabolical cat in this scenario
Brilliant!!!!
in the lore she actually invented this fiendish trap...
Recurvess LOL
Recurvess I like to think Jane is the only one working
I don't really want to destroy the OxBox family but you guys should play monopoly
I'm a grown adult and I just spent 23 minutes watching a video of four other grown adults playing a board game for 5 year-olds and it was the best thing I've seen all week!
I remember having this game as a child. I remember the pieces slowly disappearing one by one. I remember the mice evacuating overtime and being seen in random places. I remember going through old stuff and finding what was left of the box set (basically the board).
However, one thing I don't remember; is actually playing the game #tales from my youth.
Renny Fadz yeah I played it too as a kid, but I don't remember the "add a piece" tiles, instead there were tiles where you get cheese pieces and at the end (it was just a race to the end) whoever had the most cheese pieces won
I see why u guys didn't include Jane she would've just gotten more ideas on how to trap people and turn them into more robots to add to the cast of the show
as someone that never once managed to get this game to work as a child, i appreciate this even more xp
I can't believe I just spent 23 minutes and 15 seconds watching four people playing Mouse Trap and enjoyed every minute of it.
What made it enjoyable was that the Luke, Ellen, Mike and Andy seemed to be genuinely enjoying themselves.
.
Despite all his rage Luke is still just a mouse in a cage
The tension is real, you can see Andy's hand shaking as he tried to put the bathtub on the trap.
Please play more board games. Frankly I don't care which, maybe a classic like Clue. I just want to see these antics more lol
This is quite possibly the best ever lets play video. Who knew watching four adults playing a children's game could be so entertaining.
The thumbnail for this video should be on a Mouse Trap box

+
All in favour of them playing Monopoly next...I want to know who would flip the table first!
Look at them, all shoulder to shoulder. God I miss that.
I kinda have the feeling, that if a mouse gets on an "add a piece" field, they are somewhere visible in real life, so the house owner decides to further build a mouse trap.
And please, PLEASE make more videos like this. It is just too funny watching you guys play boardgames :-)
*Has PTSD flashbacks *
Emmanuel Perez this game nearly destroyed my family.
Hahahaha Ellen's face at 3:10
Ellen's face at anytime
CEC416 I'm pretty sure she was smiling and grinning the entire time
Trenton Jefferson she's the real mouse jig saw
Omg she can see into my soul!
Trenton Jefferson hey, thats my first name too
I would suggest you guys playing Risk, because I could see either Jane, Andy, or Mike getting a kick out of total world domination but it's note entirely a quick game. I wouldn't want to see you guys play Monopoly and risk having you guys having a major fallout. Otherwise perhaps Ticket to Ride would be my final suggestion.
If this is the Hunger Games, does that mean the mice need to rise up against the Catitol?
...I'll see myself out.
Catniss litterdeen
I would pay money to see that
You must now play the most brutal, cutthroat game ever conceived by man:
Monopoly.
Their videos need to be watchable in around 20 minutes, not a 3- to 6-hour-long slug fest. :)
It's a 37 part series!
am17g08 dun dun DUN!
Play Clue! One of the greatest board games of all time based on murder. Must be Andy's favorite
Mike the Joker you mean Jane's favourite.
It's Cluedo in the UK.
It'd be a short session.
'OK, Mike, your tu ...'
'Jane did it.'
'No, that's not how the game works.'
'Doesn't matter. Jane did it.'
'You've got to say how.'
'In the ballroom, with the chainsaw.'
'I don't think ...'
'CHAINSAW!'
*sound of chainsaw revving up just off camera*
Hellwyck is it clue-doo or clue-doh?
Christina B it's pronounced Clue-doh (like Judo)
It was genuinely more entertaining watching you guys play than actually playing it. Thanks! My husband had no idea what the game was, so it was nice to be able to show him.
Why do I keep watching this episode over and over again.
It's amazing how creepy kid's games and movies become when you play them later in life.
Now I want to see you all play Monopoly, but that's a friendship ending game and this is beautiful and needs to last.
Ellen and Luke make a pun or any kind of a joke together
Andy: "Well Thanks for Watching!"
Love Ellen's laugh so much. She seems to be having so much fun.
lmao Mouse Trap through the medium of Saw. That rocks!... Andy is genius.
I never played this when I was a kid either
Diarmuid allen what kind of childhood you lived in?
Diarmuid allen I *technically* didn't... I had the game, we were just too impatient, so we'd set up the whole trap, and play with army men with it... The board game itself wasn't the best, just the trap
Yeah not going to lie,
I basically did that.
Sorry, thought you meant you never even bought or touched the game at all.
When you spend 23 minutes of your life waiting for the mousetrap trap to spring... and then they quick-cut the actual trap sequence. Thanks a lot editor, good job saving those three seconds.
5 years on this still remains outsidexbox beloved masterpieces!
Cheeky bit of Shakespeare from Andy at 18:56
You guys need to do more boardgames, this was hilarious.
Who would have thought I would have been so entertained with watching 4 grown adults play mouse trap but here we are.
Watching this video has just about made my week, they should turn it into a lets play series, but with board games we played on rainy days in our childhoods when we weren't playing video games. Board games to consider:
* Clue
* Game o life
* Candy Land
* Snakes and Ladders
* Sorry!
* Trouble
* Jumanji
* Dungeons and Dragons
* Balderdash
* Risk (I forsee Jane being a big fan)
* Celebrity Heads
* Taboo
* Pictionary
Honestly I hadn't even heard of about half these games until I did a google search, and some of them I can't believe were produced. Oh god, it would be hilarious!!
Play Gammarauders. An old game with giant mutated animals that go destroy other bases with crazy weapons while they fight over radioactive resources in a post apocalyptic world.
who would preorder Andy's book
Me
"Jeeves, get into your diving tux, i wish to construct a deadly maze!"😂😂😂
LOVED THIS. Extra kudos to the one(s) who edited this video for the dramatic music, and shock-close ups.
just saying that isn't a set from the 90's cause the red piece the ball rolls down was originally a blue color. this was fucking great watching you guys play this game though.... lol
Can we have you guys play UNO? Please!!! Or Monopoly! Actually, just play Twister! So many choices!!!
Also, Andy's Camembert pun may have broken pun-o-meter, I can't brie to hear it again!
Yes, UNO please!!!!!!!
There's an Uno Xbox game where you can play with 7's and 0's having special consequences when played... would make for quite the entertaining thing... for us anyway. And completely uneditted!
I vote Phase 10, but with the three extra made-up phases added! 😁
I'm pretty sure that this is the only channel on UA-cam, that can make playing board games into an amazing video
Oh, that's how you play mouse trap! All I did when my friends and I played was to set up all the pieces and just have fun seeing the ball go through everything to catch the mice.
4:40 Jane: It's like the hunger games
Me: I thought of Gladiator
Anyone else remember a different version of this game? I remember getting cheese pieces and having the trap built already...
BlueGriffin20 yeah I remember that
The stairs were definitely blue in my game, and we collected cheese while building the trap. A bunch of cheese was at the end, but we were stuck going in circles under the basket
The trap also failed 60% of the time, so it was a LOT of playing with it to make sure it stayed put, then wondering if it’d fail or not when someone finally set it off to catch another player 😅
This is by far the best time I've had watching an oxtra and oxbox video
Board games should be a staple in gaming channels!! This was properly exciting at the end!! The suspense!! All the suspense!!!
No one has ever played Mouse Trap without the mechanics failing completely. Ah, the fond childhood memories.
Next time you should play Exploding Kittens. Technically it's a card game, but still hilarious.
Seth Twitchell or cards against humanity
Exploding Kittens would be fun with them...Cards Against Humanity is a blast, but it takes soooo long that the video would just drag on.
This randomly got recommended to me. I can’t help but say, this is one of the funniest videos on this channel. I kinda want them to play more board games like these. This, party animals/Gang beasts make for such funny videos I nearly cried laughing.
best part. mike says " so technical .Now say it with a breathier voice." laughed for about 5 straight minutes when i caught it.
I never saw mouse trap before. Looks cool.
Has anyone noticed how different this game board and rules are? The version I had as a kid (and a friend of mine has now) had far more drawn visuals on the boards and you could get cheese "chips". Is this a new version? Or perhaps it's the European version? (Canada here)
I guess it‘s a new version... I am in Europe, and I had this game and it was exactly like you described it...
I'm in the UK, and I had the version from the video 25ish years ago
Grown up humans playing a children's board game from more than two decades ago and it was STILL fantastic. OXbox and Oxtra are deserving of so much more credit and creative liberty than it seems their situation allows and that is tragic. If they did something like RoosterTeeth and sold to a company of some kind they might get the manpower they need in support and editing to focus on creative projects. What they're already making is incredible, but think of all they could do with a corporate sponsor.
I remember having this board game as a kid. Maybe 4 or so. I don’t think I could read at the time, and I didn’t have any friends to play with, so I just enjoyed setting up the rube-Goldberg machine and watching it go.
