Hunting Strategy

Hunting Tips by Larry

Welcome to the remains of the Laboratory, brave MouseHunter!

Years ago, the King built this research facility to observe the unusual changes in Gnawnian mice. Unfortunately, a few of their experiments went wrong, flooding the area with even more monstrous rodents. The Laboratory contains many mysteries, including that of the scientists who disappeared from here long ago.

A few of the mice here have stolen long-forgotten vials of radioactive waste. This glowing goo is left over from experiments in creating more powerful forms of bait. It might be worth the effort to save some of these vials to see if they work the way the scientists intended...
