Wacky Mole is an arcade game which can be played in Shenmue III.
Description[]
It costs 5 yuan per game. To play, you use a mallet to hit the moles as they appear from the holes to earn points. The four moles on the right correspond to the 4 main action buttons, and the two on the left correspond to the up and down direction buttons.
Reward[]
As a prize for playing the game, Ryo Hazuki will receive 1x Green Big Wheel Ticket, or 2x tickets if he also beats the current high score. The high score resets each morning. These tickets can be exchanged for prizes at a Big Wheel Machine.
Playing the game at the Sailing Venture Ryo will receive Gold Big Wheel Tickets instead of the regular Green Big Wheel Tickets.

Trivia[]
- Wacky Mole is clearly inspired by the real life arcade game Whac-A-Mole. The creator and director of the Shenmue series Yu Suzuki even said that Whac-A-Mole is his favorite game, which could be his reasoning for including it in Shenmue III.
- There is a Wacky Mole Cabinet Capsule Toy modelled on the arcade game in the Game Machines Set Machine in Shenmue III.
