=== The Living Garden Has Opened!===
 
''{{date|14|November|2012}}''
 
 
<blockquote>
 
<blockquote>
====The Living Garden Has Opened!====
 
<p>The long-forbidden Living Garden has finally been opened to the public again, but something sinister is going on! The wild and exotic plants and flowers of the Living Garden have been overrun by strange mice exhibiting stranger behaviour...</p>
 
====Living Garden====
 
<p>The tiny mice have adapted the environment around them to their purpose and have strapped on various pieces of plants as weapons and armour! Even stranger, they've begun hoarding tiny glowing plants called Garden Essences and protecting them at all costs.</p>
 
====Lost City====
 
<p>Nearby, a town in the desert has fallen under a terrible curse and become lost between worlds! The mice that inhabit the town have all been turned incorporeal, ghostly, and fierce, but they too are stockpiling Garden Essences for their own reasons.</p>
 
====Sand Dunes====
 
<p>In between the two lies the Sand Dunes of the desert, where Grubling Mice race from scrap of food to scrap of food, gorging themselves as best they can and making the difficult desert life ever more challenging for all the other mice. And as before, all the mice here are collecting and protecting Garden Essences. What is going on?</p>
 
====Wild New Mice!====
 
====Strawberry Hotcakes Mouse====
 
<p>This little firebrand is simultaneously the most dangerous and most helpful mouse in the Living Garden. Threatening her friends? A FLOOD OF HOT SAUCE. Food too bland? A FLOOD OF HOT SAUCE.
 
  
Her peppergun has incredible range, and the pepper reservoir on her back seems to never run dry, so don't try to outrange or outlast her. At best you can hope to surprise her, but act quickly because when surprised she unleashes A FLOOD OF HOT SAUCE.</p>
+
'''The King's Vault is Open!'''
====Ethereal Enchanter Mouse====
 
<p>There's some debate as to why the Lost City was lost between dimensions, but the actions of certain mice are definitely suspect. This mouse was known to dabble in all kinds of unsavory arcane activities and rituals. However, since he was trapped like everyone else, suspicion quickly waned.</p>
 
====Grubling Herder Mouse====
 
<p>Grubling Herders are a solemn and insular group, trained from birth to direct and control the voracious Grubling mice away from vital crops. They hail from a place of shadow known only as "Muddy'Deeb", and dedicate their lives to ensuring the rampage of the Grubling mice remains under their control.
 
  
The Grublings must flow!</p>
+
Open prize packs and gain access to the King's Vault filled with goodies!
  
====Garden Essences====
 
<p>Small, glowing plants, these Garden Essences are jealously guarded by the mice. They certainly contain great power, but how best to use it? Make sure to check out your new "Book of Living Recipes" when you get to the Living Garden to see all the different things you can make from them, but be ready to experiment to find out exactly what combines with what.</p>
 
====Minigames!====
 
<p>Every new area has its own new minigame associated with it. Attentive players will be able to dispel curses, collect water for Thirsty mice, and watch out for the Grubling stampedes! While not mandatory, paying careful attention and playing these minigames will make it a lot easier to collect Garden Essences and craft fantastic new recipes!
 
  
To play these minigames, visit the shops in each area to purchase and use cool new charms with unique effects!</p>
+
==== The King's Giveaway has BEGUN! ====
====And much, much more!====
+
The gilded gates protecting the King's Royal Treasure Vault have been opened and the King's Giveaway has begun!
<p>Of course this isn't all that's going on in the Living Garden, Sand Dunes, and Lost City, but you'll have to explore and experiment to find out more! There's a terrible secret hiding in amongst the plants and mice, and world-changing lore waiting to be uncovered! Only dedication, hard work, and a mountain of patience will serve you in uncovering the secrets of... The [[Living Garden]] </p>

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<nowiki>|</nowiki>brie+ and charms.

=== Something swampy this way comes! ===
+
==== Regal Codex ====
''{{date|18|October|2012}}''
 
<blockquote>
 
==== Something swampy this way comes! ====
 
<p>In a cloud of noxious gasses and bellowing a mighty roar, the Swamp Thang Mouse has burst forth from the Living Garden and charged headlong into Gnawnia! Finding the Haunted Terrortories there waiting for him, he kicked Mousevina from her throne and has settled in.</p>
 
  
<p>Now he's guarding a whole horde of loot from last year and new treasures besides!</p>
+
Unlock the new Regal Codex by hunting with any Regal Charm to find Regal Codex Pages as loot drops. Mice drop these pages both during and after the giveaway! The pages can then be turned in at the King's Arms for the Codex.
  
<b>How to hunt at the Haunted Terrortories</b>
+
<center>''The codex allows you a chance to upgrade your existing Regal Charm into the next tiered version!''</center>
  
<p>Navigating the Haunted Terrortories will require a hunter to both trick and treat the mice there by hunting with Ghoulgonzola (trick) and Candy Corn (treat) Cheese.</p>
+
<div style="text-align: center; border: 0.083em solid; border-radius: 0.416em; padding: 0.416em; margin: 1em 0">
 +
<div style="font-size: 115%>'''The Regal Codex will be a permanent addition to the King's Cart.'''<br>
 +
This means that you can obtain it even after the King's Giveaway ends!
 +
</div></div>
  
<p>Gathering trick and treat cheese in Gnawnia is a familiar tradition. Each day, hunters may visit up to 10 friends and receive some bait. Before you visit others, be sure to [http://{{MHdomain}}/profile.php visit your own profile] and choose what type of cheese you're handing out! If you find yourself getting low on cheese, you can also hunt at the Terrortories using Swiss, Brie, Gouda or SUPER|brie+ to attract Hollowhead Mice that drop Halloween Cheese. Additionally, you may find it inside Pumpkin Treat Baskets which you can [http://{{MHdomain}}/gift.php send as gifts] to friends!</p>
 
  
<p>The Haunted Terrortories consists of three areas: The Corn Maze, Haunted Manor and the Pumpkin Patch. You must both trick AND treat enough mice in your current area to begin attracting mice from the next. Your trick and treat progress will be displayed while hunting in the Haunted Terrortories.</p>
+
==== King's Cart Updates ====

These themes will be shown on your Camp, as well as your Profile for all to see!</p>
 
  
<p>You can unlock the Golden Shield theme by having the Golden Shield, and the Hallowe'en Theme by gathering Hallowe'en Theme Scraps and crafting them together into the Completed Hallowe'en Theme. The first scrap can be found on the Swamp Thang Mouse, but the other two will require some investigating to find!</p>
+
Inside the King's Vault, hunters may have the option to select a Rainbow Scroll Case as one possible reward. This bright and colourful case contains a lengthy treasure map, which usually allows for six hunters to participate. However, hunters can 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 the same massive map, but allows for '''10 hunters''' to participate!
  
==== Halloween Baskets and New Skins ====
+
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 huge 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.
This slightly haunted kit will help you hunt the more fearsome mice of the Haunted Terrotories! Inside you'll find 100 SUPER|brie+, 50 Spooky Charms, 25 Ghoulgonzola, and 25 Candy Corn!

A combination of flaming-hot Ethereal Charcoal and Eldritch Fog ensure that this version of the Steam Laser Mk. III is no less effective, but far spookier.
+
To celebrate the King's Giveaway, the King is offering royal deals on the most popular cheese in the Kingdom: SUPER<nowiki>|</nowiki>brie+!
  
<b>Lovecraft Shelf</b><br/>

<p>The rumours are true! More and more Leprechaun Mouse sightings have been reported in the last week, and it looks like they are here to stay! What's more, hunters can expect to see even more Leprechaun mice in the coming week, all carrying great rewards and each with a chance to win a '''real cash prize'''!</p>
 
  
<p>Until Wednesday, October 17, there will be more prize mice and Leprechaun mice than usual roaming the lands! When this little streak of luck is over, the Leprechaun mice and other prize mice will be harder to find, but they are here to stay!</p>
 
  
<p>Use common cheese (Cheddar, Brie, Gouda, SUPER|brie+, or anything not overly special, rare, or difficult to obtain) to attract a prize mouse to your trap, but be warned for they are tough and will put up a fight! If you catch one, you have a chance at winning a '''real cash prize'''!

==== A Reminder About Bonus Hunts ====
-- {{MHP|501789245|Giorgio Sintichakis}}
+
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.

The "special" bonuses '''specifically''' provided by your trap, base, charm, and aura(s) (not area bonuses like the Furoma Rift Droid) are taken into account as expected when encountering a mouse on a bonus hunt.

<p>With so many hunters all digging for treasure at once, the delicate Treasure-Hunting Ecosystem has been forever altered!</p>
 
 
 
<p>What does this mean? For one, all the easy Ancient Relics have been found, and mice that had large stockpiles of relics in the past have noticed their reserves are dwindling. No mouse drops an Ancient Relic on every catch any more, though some are still more common than others. Keep an eye out!</p>
 
 
 
<b>Treasure Chests</b>
 
<p>However, all this is good news for treasure chests! With the increased rarity of relics, all the Treasure Chests now have more and more varied treasure in them!</p>
 
 
 
<p>Harder chests will reward <b>more</b> points and gold than before, with Arduous maps being significantly improved to balance out the incredible difficulty of the mice required. That means hunters will earn more rewards for their hard work!</p>
 
 
 
<p>So keep hunting, hunters! Treasure hunting has never been more rewarding than now!</p>
 
 
 
====King's Gauntlet Tourneys====
 
<p>Due to popular demand, the King is proud to announce the grand opening of the King's Gauntlet tournaments! He reached out to the many hunters in the land for aid and assistance, and the resulting tournaments are entirely community created!</p>
 
 
 
<p>Wait, tournaments? That's right! There are two tournaments for the King's Gauntlet – one for the higher floors, and one for the lower ones! No matter where you are through the Gauntlet, you should have ample opportunity to play and win!</p>
 
 
 
====Checkout Shop Overhaul====
 
<p>We've been slowly rolling out a new checkout system a few users at a time, so some of you may have seen this already, but today we're opening it up to everyone: a brand-new checkout!</p>
 
 
 
<p>It's a lot cleaner, allows us to offer a lot more information to you about your purchases, provides a nicer shopping cart system, and most importantly, allows us to bring back a lot more of your favourite packages!</p>
 
 
 
<p>No more needing to remove old packages due to size restrictions, so your Tournament Kits, Tribal Isle Kits, Warpath Kits and more should always be available in the future!</p>

The King's Giveaway!

18 June 2024

The King's Vault is Open!

Open prize packs and gain access to the King's Vault filled with goodies!


The King's Giveaway has BEGUN!

The gilded gates protecting the King's Royal Treasure Vault have been opened and the King's Giveaway has begun!

From now until July 2, the Treasurer, Snooty, High Roller, Mobster, and Leprechaun mice will be encountered 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 Prize Keys and a chance to win SUPER|brie+, King's Credits, and more!

King's Prize Keys and The Vault

The greedy prize mice have snatched up ALL the keys this year! Only prize mice will drop King's Prize Keys but they will always drop at least one! Use these keys to open 10 Mystery Prize Packs from your Hunter's Camp. These packs contain all sorts of goodies such as Gold, Regal Charms, King's Credits and SUPER|brie+!

Once you've opened 10 Mystery Prize Packs, the King will allow you to peek into the vault and select one of three randomly offered, highly valuable prizes! Once a prize has been selected from the vault, the door will slam shut and the prizes will reset. You may visit the vault every time you open 10 prize packs!

The King's Vault will close on July 9.

Once the giveaway ends, any King's Prize Keys in your inventory will be removed, so make sure to use them up!


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 or 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!


Regal Codex

Unlock the new Regal Codex by hunting with any Regal Charm to find Regal Codex Pages as loot drops. Mice drop these pages both during and after the giveaway! The pages can then be turned in at the King's Arms for the Codex.

The codex allows you a chance to upgrade your existing Regal Charm into the next tiered version!
The Regal Codex will be a permanent addition to the King's Cart.

This means that you can obtain it even after the King's Giveaway ends!


King's Cart Updates

The following items have been added to the King's Cart:

Papyrus Seed
Cost: 1x King's Credit
Ingenuity Grub
Cost: 1x King's Credit
Unstable Charm
Cost: 2x King's Credit
Compass Magnet
Cost: 20x King's Credit
Regal Chrome Celestial Dissonance Skin
Cost: 300x King's Credit
Regal Codex
Cost: 100x Regal Codex Page


Rainbow Treasure Maps

Inside the King's Vault, hunters may have the option to select a Rainbow Scroll Case as one possible reward. This bright and colourful case contains a lengthy treasure map, which usually allows for six hunters to participate. However, hunters can 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 the same massive map, 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 huge 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.


Royal Deals

To celebrate the King's Giveaway, the King is offering royal deals on the most popular cheese in the Kingdom: SUPER|brie+!

Until the end of the giveaway, some of the most popular bundles of SUPER|brie+ are on sale with savings ranging from 10% all the way to 25% off.

Additionally, the King has put together some marvelous bundles, offering up the very best of his royal stash of Regal Charms and SUPER|brie+, along with some Prize Keys to exchange towards a King's Vault prize, for a bargain!

We're working through these compensations manually.

On July 2, Prize Keys will stop dropping, and Prize mice will go back into hiding.

The Giveaway will remain accessible for opening Prize Packs and King's Vaults until July 9

King's Prize Keys will be removed from inventories shortly afterwards, so be sure to exchange them all!

The event will end at approximately 3:00pm UTC

A Reminder About 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.

The "special" bonuses specifically provided by your trap, base, charm, and aura(s) (not area bonuses like the Furoma Rift Droid) are taken into account as expected when encountering a mouse on a bonus hunt.
