When the mice of the Burroughs overran the laboratory, the resourceful scientists created a fortified subterranean city. Unfortunately their creations proved to be just as resourceful and soon infiltrated the city. |
Overview
The Town of Digby is a location in the Burroughs region requiring a minimum rank of Master and the Key to the Town of Digby to enter.
Mice in the Town of Digby cannot steal gold, points, or cheese.
Cheese usage determines the mice population in the Town of Digby. One grouping of mice is available when Standard Cheese or SUPER|brie+ is armed. When Limelight Cheese is armed, Hunters can encounter the Digby Dirt Dwellers mice.
Town of Digby Mice – Standard Cheeses
The mice attracted to Standard Cheese and SUPER|brie+ in the Town of Digby are almost all part of the Indigenous Mice group and are weak to all Power Types.
The Bat Mouse is part of The Shadow Clan and is primarily weak to Shadow weapons. Physical, Arcane, and Forgotten weapons are of normal effectiveness, and Tactical weapons are less effective. All other Power Types are ineffective.
Cheese Preference and Loot
Standard Cheese attracts almost all of these mice in the Town of Digby.
SUPER|brie+ is required to attract the Black Widow Mouse and Nibbler Mouse.
Limelight Cheese will not attract these mice.

Mice with Special Requirements
- Relic Hunter Mouse – This mouse visits the Town of Digby on an irregular basis. It does not consume cheese or charms. Hunters must have an Ancient Relic in their inventory to attract this mouse. The Ancient Relic will be taken by the Relic Hunter Mouse in exchange for a Relic Hunter Scroll Case.
- M400 – This mouse will sometimes be available in the Town of Digby when Hunters are actively working an M400 Hunting Research Assignment. It is attracted only to Fusion Fondue which will not attract any other mice. It drops a wide variety of loot.
Hunting Strategy
There are two separate groups of mice found in the Town of Digby.
The first group of mice are primarily part of the Indigenous Mice group and are attracted to Standard Cheese and SUPER|brie+, but not Limelight Cheese. With the exception of the Bat Mouse, these mice are weak to all Power Types.
The second group of mice are all part of the Digby Dirt Dwellers group and are only attracted to Limelight Cheese. These mice are weak to Physical, Tactical, Arcane, and Shadow weapons.

Hunting tips by Larry
Congratulations on finding the secret research facility of Digby!
After the Laboratory was overrun with mice, the scientists fled here. Unfortunately, it did not take the mice long to find it. The scientists now need your help hunting down the intruders!
Be sure to visit the Trapsmith in Digby to view its experimental traps. You will notice an extremely powerful trap called the DrillBot, along with two strange portal traps. These portals use a form of damage called Shadow. A shadow trap will come in handy should you plan on heading west towards the dark graveyard.
Digby seems to be the perfect environment for the rare Mole mouse. If you have yet to discover this breed, hunting for it here may be worth your while.
Recent tunnelling by town officials has also uncovered some construction mice, who appear to be digging a tunnel of their own. Along with these new intruders, the Town of Digby now has to deal with the worm-like Big Bad Burroughs mice, and their smaller cousins, the Itty-Bitty Burroughs mice.
Anyone wanting to catch these new subterranean breeds should use Limelight Cheese, which is made from Radioactive Sludge, Curds and Whey and Living Shards. Living Shards are available, for a premium, at the Digby general store, but rumour has it that they were also once used for experiments at the Laboratory.
Hunting the Big Bad Burroughs mouse is risky, but could pay off big. Digby scientists report that a Big Bad Burroughs mouse ran off with a rare slab of Ohnoesium ore the other day, and I've heard that Ohnoesium can be very valuable to hunters...
