MouseHunt is a popular game in which players, referred to as hunters, catch mice with a variety of traps and cheeses in order to earn experience points and virtual gold through passive gameplay. From time to time the developers add new locations and mice as well as sponsor thousands of dollars for periodic giveaways and tournaments. MouseHunt was developed by HitGrab Inc. as a Facebook application and released to a small group for beta testing in early 2008. On 7 March 2008, MouseHunt was officially released to the general public. Just nine months later, MouseHunt earned its creators a $250,000 development grant from Facebook and the game continues to grow in popularity.
This wiki exists to inform and to educate the community of MouseHunters and those who have an interest in the MouseHunt world and its intricacies.

The Spring Egg Hunt Begins!09 April 2019 It's that time of the year again! The Spring Egg Hunt is back in town! Hidden Spring Hunt EggsMice throughout the Kingdom are carrying special eggs containing tasty treats of bonus loot! Travel throughout the Kingdom and hunt mice in search of these hidden eggs, then crack them open to see what's inside! To get started, you'll need a special egg-finding piece of equipment called an Eggscavator. If you do not already own one, you can purchase one from the King for 10,000 gold from the special Spring Egg Hunt heads-up display. Or, you can track down the Eggscavator Mouse in areas throughout the Kingdom to find one for free. Marshmallow Monterey Stockpiles and Spring Hunt Event MiceThe changing of the season has attracted several event mice to certain locations. These hunting spots are home to "stockpiles" of Marshmallow Monterey -- a special cheese that will lure event mice to your trap. To collect Marshmallow Monterey, visit one of the stockpile locations (listed below) and hunt as you normally would there to collect Marshmallow Monterey as loot. Marshmallow Monterey Stockpile Locations:• Town of Gnawnia (Recruit) • Laboratory (Master) • Town of Digby (Master) • Great Gnarled Tree (Master) • Dojo (Grandmaster) • Catacombs (Legendary) • S.S. Huntington (Legendary) • Cape Clawed (Legendary) • King's Gauntlet (Hero) • Claw Shot City (Lord/Lady) • Muridae Market (Baron/Baroness) • Queso River (Count/Countess) • Gnawnia Rift (Count/Countess) • Fungal Cavern (Duke/Duchess) • Moussu Picchu (Grand Duke/Duchess) Once you've obtained some Marshmallow Monterey, you can use it in any stockpile location to attract Spring Egg Hunt event mice! These mice can drop 10 especially valuable eggs that each hunter can loot only once. Event mice also drop special charms to boost the power of your Eggscavator!

How Eggs-ilarating! Eggsweeper is a brand new mini-game made in the spirit of Minesweeper. You have 10 eggs hidden somewhere in the field and you need to reveal them all to earn rank-specific rewards! Each tile you reveal costs 1 Eggsweeper Shovel. When you reveal a tile, you will either be shown a number or an egg. The number shown is a clue representing how many eggs are hidden in nearby tiles (diagonals included). If you reveal an egg, you get a special Eggsweeper Egg added to your inventory based on your hunter rank. Eggsweeper Egg Tiers by Title Range: • Tier 1: Novice to Journeyman/Journeywoman • Tier 2: Master to Lord/Lady • Tier 3: Baron/Baronness and Count/Countess • Tier 4: Duke/Duchess and up These eggs will contain loot appropriate for areas in the Kingdom tied to the hunter ranks. You can find 10 Eggsweeper Shovels inside of this year's Golden Egg. You can also find them in your Daily Loyalty Chest or purchase them from the Premium Store.
