More prize mice are on the loose!

It's a King's Giveaway, which means more prize mice are on the loose! The King has swung open the gates of his personal treasure vault which has attracted prize mice from all over!

From now until June 8 the Treasurer, Snooty, High Roller, Mobster, and Leprechaun will be encountered much more frequently everywhere in the Kingdom.

During the giveaway each time you attract a mouse you'll have a chance to attract a prize mouse as a bonus hunt which does not consume any cheese or charms and will appear as an additional hunt in your Hunter's Journal.

Capture these rare and valuable mice for a chance to win SUPER|brie+, King's Credits, and more!

King's Prize Keys

During the King's Giveaway prize mice will always drop a King's Prize key while all other mice have a small chance of dropping one. Use these keys to open 10 Mystery Prize Packs from your Hunter's Camp. These packs contain all sorts of goodies such as Regal Charms, King's Credits, SUPER|brie+, and the always popular Rainbow Scroll Case!

Once you've opened all 10 Mystery Prize Packs any additional keys you find can be used to open Mini Prize Packs containing more modest rewards. Shortly after the giveaway ends any King's Prize Keys in your inventory will be removed, so make sure to use them as you loot them!

Prized items

Capturing a Treasurer, Snooty, or High Roller Mouse will reward you with King's Credits which you can spend at the King's Arms / King's Cart for equipment to help you in a wide range of hunting endeavours.

Capturing a Mobster Mouse will reward you with SUPER|brie+ in quantities of 25, 50, 75, 100, 250, 500, or even 1,000!

Considered some of the most rare items in the Kingdom are the Mystery Pot of Gold and Mystery Satchel of Gold dropped by the extremely rare and elusive Leprechaun Mouse. Should you have the extraordinary luck of not only encountering but also capturing a Leprechaun Mouse it will most often drop a Mystery Satchel of Gold containing a generous quantity of Gold along with SUPER|brie+ and charms. On more rare occasions, the Leprechaun will drop a Mystery Pot of Gold which contains even more SUPER|brie+ and the chance of a cash prize!

Rainbow Treasure Maps, now PARTY SIZE

Inside one of the 10 Mystery Prize Packs hunters will find a Rainbow Scroll Case. This bright and colourful case contains a massive treasure map containing 65, 100, or 120 mice! This lengthy map usually allows for six hunters to participate, however, hunters can now upgrade their Rainbow Scroll Cases into a PARTY SIZE version by visiting the King's Arms or King's Cart. The exchange costs a regular Rainbow Scroll Case, 1 Rare Map Dust, and 50 Magic Essence. This jumbo scroll contains a map with 65, 100, or 120 mice, but allows for 10 hunters to participate!

Whether you take on a regular or party size map they'll both lead to the same Rainbow Treasure Chest rewarding Gold, Points, Ancient Charms, Rainbow Charms, King's Credits, and more!

Not interested in completing such a lengthy map? Rainbow Treasure Maps can be completed at any time by claiming a consolation prize for a portion of the Points, Gold, and Ancient Charms based on the number of mice captured.

A note on bonus hunts

Bonus hunts do not affect area progression, consume cheese or charms, or trigger special hunting effects and abilities. This means bonus hunts will not do things such as move your submarine forward in the Sunken City, advance your position in the Valour Rift, affect rage levels in Whisker Woods Rift, etc.

Previously, bonus hunts not affecting progression also meant that mice encountered on a bonus hunt were not affected by special trap bonuses or abilities. Things such as the Riftwalker/Riftstalker Set Bonus, upgraded Prestige Base stats, etc. However, this is no longer the case. The "special" bonuses specifically provided by your trap, base, charm, and aura(s) (not area bonuses like the Furoma Rift Droid) are now taken into account as expected when encountering a mouse on a bonus hunt.
