El Segundo-based Toy maker Mattel Inc. said Friday acquired the rights to the Whac-A-Mole game from Bob's Space Racers Inc.

It also bought Sekkoia SAS, which makes board game Blokus, for undisclosed financial terms.

Mattel didn't disclose the financial terms of the transactions.

"The addition of these fantastic brands reinforces Mattel's commitment to offering games that are both engaging and entertaining for people of all ages," Tim Kilpin, senior vice president of Mattel Brands' Boys, Girls & Games unit, said in a statement.
