We had an older version of this game from when I was younger but we've lost some pieces over the years. We re-ordered it for the kids and it's pretty much the same. The board itself has been "updated" with some newer graphics than the original release and the mice look pretty dumb, but the game-play is still the same and so is the trap itself, with the exception of using two heavy marbles now instead of one heavy marble and one larger, plastic ball. I have to say I much prefer the larger ball to sit on top of the 'helping hands' because half the time the first marble doesn't jar the hand enough to send the second marble rolling. And sometimes, even when it does roll off it's platform, it doesn't actually fall through the hole in the bathtub and you have to give it a push. The kids don't care, but I don't remember that being a problem in the original set.
