King's Giveaway! Yeah!

As I predicted a few days ago, the event for November is indeed an updated King's Giveaway! What you need to know about this "event" is that the prize mice that already existed in the game are on the loose again in much greater numbers. This means you have a much better shot of catching them! As of this writing, I have already managed to snag a Snooty Mouse. Some of the mice are carrying actual cash prizes! Below is all the information for the event! Have fun hunters!

King's Giveaway

It's giveaway time in Gnawnia! An increased number of prize mice are roaming the entire Kingdom carrying with them prizes of King's Credits, SUPER|brie+, real cash, and more! The giveaway will last for one week with over $25,000 in prizes to be won! Arm your traps and get hunting!

Prize Mice

Treasurer Mouse
(common)

Compared to other prize mice, Treasurers are somewhat common during a giveaway. Found wandering the Kingdom, they carefully catalog and count the King's Credits that "higher-ups" have managed to hoard. Capture one and you'll find a few King's Credits for yourself!


Snooty Mouse
(uncommon)

Snooty mice enjoy the finer things in life, trading their stockpiles of King's Credits for gourmet cheese and fine clothing. These mice can be difficult to find, but with their capture comes a small handful King's Credits!



High Roller Mouse
(rare)

These mice hustle massive quantities of King's Credits from other mice using their keen instincts and straight poker face. High Roller mice carry with them a large quantity of King's Credits, however, they're also quite rare. You'll need lady luck on your side to even encounter this mouse, let alone capture it!


Mobster Mouse
(very rare)

Mobster mice don't like a lot of competition from other mice on their turf, and as such, encounters with a Mobster can be few and far between. Capturing a Mobster Mouse will earn you what they call "the good stuff", although it's more frequently referred to as SUPER|brie+ by hunters.


Leprechaun Mouse
(extremely rare — only a few hundred in the entire Kingdom!)

Leprechauns are the source of many fictional stories throughout the Kingdom, which seems suiting as, along with their rarity, many hunters believe these mice to be fiction! Leprechauns are the rarest mouse in the Kingdom with only a few hundred out there to be found. Will luck be on your side and will you find the rarest of all rare mice in your trap?


Regal Journal Theme and Charms!

This most opulent Regal Journal Theme is comprised of two halves. The first half is dropped by Treasurer, Snooty, and High Roller mice; the second half can be purchased from the King's Arms for 15 King's Credits and 10,000 gold. Show off your prize-hunting prowess with regal style!


Regal Charms are handcrafted in Gnawnia from only the finest materials, making them only available in short supply. These extremely powerful charms have 1,000 power, 6 luck, and 20% attraction bonus! Regal Charms can only be found while the Giveaway is active inside Daily Loyalty chests, daily gifts, and in the Regal Gift Basket. Once the Giveaway is over, these charms will no longer be available, so make sure to share as many as you can with friends!


Regal Gift Basket

Packed to the brim with Regal Charms and SUPER|brie+! The Regal Gift basket is perfect for feeling fancy and hunting like a King! Perfect to give to a friend who needs a little lavishness in their life!







Updated King's Arms Items

Put your King's Credits to good use by spending them at the King's Arms located in the Valour region. There you'll find a wide variety of loot to help you in your hunting endeavours. The King has stocked new items, like the Sheriff's Badge Charm, so make sure to visit and check out the wares!


Where can I encounter a prize mouse?

Prize mice can be found anywhere other than the Meadow. However, keep in mind that not all bait will attract a prize mouse. See the list below of bait capable of attracting a prize mouse.


What happens when I catch a prize mouse?

Journal entries for prize mouse catches are bright green, making them hard to miss! In addition to a journal entry, you'll also receive a notification in your inbox letting you know which mouse you caught and what prize it was carrying.

If a prize mouse was carrying King's Credits, SUPER|brie+, or other items, the items are added directly to your inventory. Should you capture a mouse carrying a real cash prize, you'll receive a second journal containing a link to claim your prize.

  • Hunt almost anywhere for prize mice
  • Over $25,000 in prizes!
  • More than 500,000 pieces of SUPER|brie+ to win!

    Some event coming Thanksgiving week?

    The Devs posted a link on the application Facebook page for Mousehunt that something is coming next week. We are left to speculate what that "something" could mean, but some are wondering if it is indeed another "King's Giveaway."

    I'll spare you the detailed explanation and just cut to the chase: the last time the Devs did this, November 2010, it was an unmitigated disaster (the whole Prize Power deal). If they are doing something similar, I hope they find a better solution for catching those prize mice!

    Halloween is over...ready for the Great Winter Hunt?

    The Haunted Territories event came to an end a few days ago, but hunters should not get the post-sugar rush depressions....it is time in about a month for the Great Winter Hunt of 2013!

    What can you do to prepare for it? Well, nothing really, but it never hurts to have gold on hand!

    During this interim window between the two popular events, many veteran hunters take the time to accomplish their own personal tasks, like completing come silver crowns, doing treasure maps, or participating in tournaments. For me personally, I am doing a treasure map and trying to catch that elusive Black Widow!

    November has usually been a time for Mousehunt to welcome it's new members in a sort of "Newcomer's Appreciation Month." While it is not official this year, take some time and find some newer hunters (if you're a veteran) who you can assist with your knowledge of the game.

    Happy hunting!
