The squirrel will follow the cursor as you move your way through the maze without crashing into the walls. If you crash into the walls, the squirrel will start at the beginning again.
The objective of the game is to complete the level by collecting all of the food sources to feed the hungry animals. If you go to the animal without enough food, it will send you back to the start; if you do go to the animal with a certain amount of food, it will let you pass to the next level. Each food source shares a fact either about Canada, the UNDRIP, the UN SDGs, the UNCRC or the animal gives you facts about endangered animals. So make sure you read them!
