<p>In order to fully explore the Haunted Terrortories of Gnawnia, you'll need plenty of Ghoulgonzola and Candy Corn Cheese.

Just click the "Trick-or-Treat" button to discover if your friend decided to trick, or treat you! You'll receive Ghoulgonzola for a trick, and Candy Corn Cheese for a treat. You can also collect both of these flavours of cheese by hunting mutated or Hollowhead mice at the Haunted Terrortories.</p>

''{{date|13|January|2026}}''
  
<p>During the Halloween event Ghoulgonzola and Candy Corn cheese carry a very high attraction rate in not only the Haunted Terrortories, but many other hunting locations in the Kingdom. Their ability to attract mice is closely tied to the magic of the Haunted Terroroties, meaning they will be slightly less powerful when the Halloween event ends.</p>

In order to find the Mythweaver in his final form, you'll need to establish yourself as a successful writer by raising your '''Notoriety''' in all the major literary genres.
  
=== Uh Oh... Laboratory Experiment has gone wrong! ===

Once your Notoriety is high enough, you'll be capable of writing the most awe-inspiring genre of all: '''Fantasy'''.

<p>Dr. Mouser has accidentally ____ the wrong ingredient in one of his most recent experiments! This has caused a major eruption in the disposal unit of the lab and Radioactive Sludge has gone pouring out everywhere!</p>

<p>We're looking to make a splash image or comic that depicts "A day in the life of a MouseHunter" to show players who are new to the game. The goal is to show that MouseHunt is a game that you check on in your spare time and is a fun game that only takes a few minutes a day to enjoy.</p>

<p>The general idea is some sort of splash image or comic showing someone checking in to sound their horn, then going off to make lunch, or some other activity. Then, 15 minutes later, they come back to sound the horn again and once again, they leave and do another activity. This structure shows that the game is played passively by checking back whenever you have a minute of free time.</p>
