Enjoy Playing Mad Monday

I didn’t expect to stumble onto a game that turns your Monday blues into a full-blown caper, but Mad Monday somehow does exactly that. You start off with two cartoonish thieves—think Dr. Seuss characters that got lost on their way to a bank kiosk—and your mission is simple: tilt, turn, and swirl them through laser grids, vault doors, and conveyor belts to pocket as many bills as you can. The minute you launch that first level, you’re greeted by a bright splash of color and a rickety soundtrack that feels like it was performed by rubber ducks in a bathtub. It’s ridiculous in the best way possible.

As you wobble your phone or tablet to roll your ragdoll accomplices around, you’ll quickly realize that physics are the real villain here. One minute they’re about to nab the big jackpot; the next, you’ve accidentally catapulted them into a wall of rotating buzzsaws. And yes, there’s that sweet moment when everything aligns perfectly, the vault swings open, and you hear that triumphant cha-ching as your loot meter goes through the roof. Small mistakes, like a micro-tilt too far or tapping the wrong gadget, can mean starting over, which somehow makes every hard-won heist feel like pure gold.

Beyond just replaying the same vault over and over, Mad Monday keeps things fresh with unlockable outfits for your heist duo—pirate hats, ninja masks, even disco pants—and special gear that changes up how gravity affects your little criminals. You’ll also find daily challenges and leaderboards, which is a neat way to remind yourself that yes, somebody out there managed to pinch even more virtual cash than you did. Sharing your best runs is as simple as hitting a button, so you can brag to your friends or trash-talk strangers in global rankings.

What really sells Mad Monday is how it wears its silliness on its sleeve. It’s the kind of game you fire up while waiting in line for your morning coffee, only to discover that thirty minutes have vanished faster than a handful of stolen bills. The learning curve is gentle enough that you won’t rage-quit on the first level, but it throws just enough curveballs to keep you hooked. And when you finally nail that perfect run and see your name at the top of the board, it almost makes you forget it’s still Monday. Almost.
