Full of fresh air and plenty of sunshine, the Harbour seems to attract the types of mice who boast of sea salt in their veins.

Description and Requirements

The Harbour is a location in the Gnawnia region requiring a minimum rank of Apprentice to enter. It is the first area encountered by new hunters where mice may steal points, gold, or multiple pieces of cheese if not captured.

These are the shops that can be found in the Harbour:

Hunting Strategy

As the Harbour is the first place where hunters can lose gold, points, and cheese, new hunters should avoid using a weak trap as this can be very costly. The hunter has several Trap Setup Options for the Harbor. At the minimum, the Mouse Trebuchet or Mouse Rocketine should be used. For those with the Mouse Rocketine, this location is a good place to start collecting Stale Cheese for future use as it is the only purchasable trap with the very stale cheese effect.

With a stronger trap such as the Swiss Army Mouse Trap, hunting in the Harbour will be more worthwhile than spending time in the Town of Gnawnia or the Meadow. While any trap will be effective in this location, hunters are encouraged to move on to the Mountain once they have earned enough gold to purchase at least the Swiss Army Mouse Trap. Hunters should also avoid spending too much time in this location to trap rare mice as they can be found in other locations.

Hunters who wish to craft the Dehydration Base should remember to purchase the Dehydration Base Blueprints and salt needed to avoid a return trip to the Harbour.

Cheese Usage

All standard cheese types can be used in this location. However, Brie is not recommended for this location due to the low overall profit. Swiss cheese should also be avoided when using a weak trap.

White Cheddar can be easily crafted from the ingredients available in the General Store, and it will keep the White, Brown, and Grey mice away from traps and increase overall profit by attracting only the more valuable breeds. In this instance, the Wooden Base with Target can be considered so as to improve the attraction rate.
