== Hunting Strategy ==
 
In this location, there are mice of four different power types ([[Hydro]], [[Physical]], [[Forgotten]] and [[Tactical]]). There are currently no traps that are effective against both Forgotten and Tactical mice, so the hunter needs to pick the trap with the power type of their most desired mice. Alternatively, hunters may consider using the luckiest trap available to them.
 
 
 
[[SUPER brie+|SUPER|brie+]] and [[Gingerbread_(cheese)|Gingerbread]] cheese are the only cheeses that are consistently effective in attracting all of the festive mice that are exclusive to this location, though SUPER|brie+ seems to be better in obtaining the Christmas Tree Mouse (see [[Christmas Tree Mouse|the main Christmas Tree Mouse article]]) and is essentially necessary to attract the [[Worker Mouse]]. The use of conventional cheeses such as [[Brie]] or [[Swiss]] does not attract the festive mice as much and eliminates altogether the attraction of several mice including the [[Scrooge]], [[Christmas Tree]], [[Troll]], [[Hydra]] and [[Gargoyle]]. The overall attraction rate of regular cheese is rather low in this location, but the [[Abominable Snow Mouse]] is still attracted to your trap.
 
 
 
===Hunting tips by [[Larry]]===
 
Welcome to the Festive Comet, MouseHunter!
 
 
 
This massive snowy comet smashed into [[Gnawnia]] resulting in a massive explosion of candy canes and snow!
 
 
 
There are all sorts of festive looking mice here! To attract a festive mouse to your trap I suggest using '''SUPER|brie+''' or '''Gingerbread''' cheese. You'll find that both work quite well here!
 
 
 
A few resident mice here have been spotted carrying gifts... [[12 Days 'til Christmas|twelve]] to be exact. I have a strange suspicion that collecting all the different items will prove to have a benefit!
 
 
 
Watch out for errant snowballs and happy holiday hunting!
