The Sandmouse has left the dreamworld and has come here to put Gnawnia under his sleeping spell! His Spooky Sandcastle is made completely out of his magical sleep sand, causing anyone who enters to fall into a deep sleep. You will need to use both Ghoulgonzola and Candy Corn cheese to trick and treat the mice, progress through your dreams and wake back up to face the Sandmouse! |
Overview
The Spooky Sandcastle is a special location available during the Halloween 2016 event, requiring a minimum rank of Recruit to enter. Mice are unable to steal gold or points, but may steal multiple pieces of cheese if not captured.
Hunters must use Candy Corn Cheese and Ghoulgonzola Cheese to travel through the Spooky Sandcastle and encounter the Sandmouse. The Sandmouse will drop a Magic Pillowcase that Hunters can use to collect bonus loot from mice throughout the Kingdom
Location HUD
The Heads-Up Display shows the progress through the area.
Along the top is a background image that corresponds to the current charm (Candy, Shortcut, Spooky, Extra Spooky, or all others). On the top left is a mention of the current zone ("Haunted Dream", "Terrible Nightmare", or "Boss!"); additionally, the message will include "Area limit reached! You should swap baits!" if the Hunter has filled up the meter for the current cheese. On the top right is a link to the Spooky Shuffle mini-game.
In the center row, the left side shows the hunter's current inventory of Ghoulgonzola and Candy Corn cheese, with buttons to arm or disarm them. Then there is a graphical display of all 81 hunts required per cycle through the area (15 per side in the Haunted Dream, 48 per side in the Terrible Nightmare, plus Trick and Treat, and then the boss icon for the Sandmouse).
On the bottom of the HUD is a listing of the hunter's inventory of four items and a button to arm or disarm each. Hovering over each item gives the following hints:
- Shortcut Charms push you ahead +1 square each successful hunt!
- Spooky Charms attract scarier mice. Halloween terrors of old also appear and have a chance to drop Spooky Shuffle Tickets!
- Extra Spooky Charms attract way scarier mice. Halloween terrors of old also appear and have a chance to drop Spooky Shuffle Tickets and the Mousataur Priestess Mouse also drops Labyrinth loot!
- The Spooky Flashlight pushes you ahead +1 square each successful hunt! It also gets you extra Halloween Treats!
Pillowcase HUD
This Heads-Up Display appears above the Hunter's Journal and tracks the following items:
- Current Neighbourhood - Neighbourhoods determine the type of Treats and Sweet Treats found as loot from mice.
- Treats found - When the Magical Pillowcase reaches 100 treats of either type it can be opened.
- Pillowcases opened - Hunters will need to open at least 3 if they wish to complete the Capture the Sandmouse Adventure.
- The Spooky Flashlight and the Hunter's stock of Flashlight Batteries - Flashlight Batteries can be armed and disarmed through the HUD.
- The state of the Sugar Rush Aura - The Aura provides a 10% Power Bonus for the Hunter's Trap and boosts the effects of Candy Charms.
- Candy Charms - The Hunter's inventory quantity and the ability to arm and disarm them.
- Spooky Shuffle Tickets - The Hunter's inventory quantity and the ability to acces the Spooky Shuffle.
Selecting More Info in the upper right opens a pop-up where Hunters can craft the Piullowcase Journal Theme or travel (once they have acquired the Magical Pillowcase) to any of the locations found in the various trick-or-treat Neighbourhoods.
Magical Pillowcase
Once Hunters have defeated the Sandmouse and looted the Magical Pillowcase they can travel throughout the Kingdom collecting bonus Treats' from mice. Some mice will drop Sweet Treats that are often rare or more valuable items.
Treats and Sweet Treats are deposited into the Magical Pillowcase. Once 100 Treats in total have been collected, Hunters are able to open the Magical Pillowcase, revealing the collected loot. The loot is displayed by Neighbourhood and the mice that dropped Sweet Treats are listed along with the loot they dropped.
Opening a Magical Pillowcase will activate the Sugar Rush Aura. There is no cap to how many Treats a Magical Pillowcase can hold, but Hunters are encouraged to open it as near to 100 as possible to maximize the length of time they can benefit from the Sugar Rush Aura.
Spooky Flashlight
Hunters can collect Flaslight Batteries from mice in the Spooky Sandcastle.
Activating the Spooky Flashlight by arming Flashlight Batteries will provide Hunters with +1 movement in the Spooky Sandcastle with each successful hunt.
Each successful hunt with an active Spooky Flashlight will reward Hunters with an additional Treat or Sweet Treat throughout the Kingdom.
Sugar Rush Aura
This Aura provides a 10% Power Bonus to the Hunter's trap throughout the Kingdom. It also boosts the effects of the Candy Charm.
Each Magical Pillowcase opened will reward 48 hours of the Sugar Rush Aura. The aura's duration time stacks and the aura's time will be extended each time Hunters open an additional Magical Pillowcase.
Mice
- Candy Apple and Spooky Mask are dropped by all mice in the Spooky Sandcastle.
- Once all criteria for encountering the Trick, Treat, and Sandmouse mice have been met, each is the only mouse that can be encountered.
- Power Types shown are the most effective, based on the in-game difficulty ranking. However, stronger traps of other power types may still be effective.
Cheese Usage
Standard Cheese will attract mice that drop Candy Corn and Ghoulgonzola cheeses.
Candy Corn and Ghoulgonzola cheeses are require to progress through the Spooky Sandcastle.
