| A strange meteor has landed near Claw Show City, leaving a huge impact crater near the Gnawnian Express rails! This mysterious meteor brings with it a mysterious new breed of mice and their presence threatens the lives of the citizens of Varmint Valley. Around the crater, an encampment of hunters has surrounded these dangerous mice and are setting up a fort to hold them back! | |
Overview
Fort Rox is a location in the Varmint Valley region requiring a minimum rank of Baron or Baroness to enter. It also requires the purchase of the Fort Rox Battle Summons from the Claw Shot City Cartographer.
Hunting During the Day
During the Day Hunters will encounter mice that are primarily weak to Law weapons and attracted to Standard Cheese and SUPER|brie+. These mice drop Meteorite Pieces used for building the Basic Wall and for repairing any damage to the Wall done during the Night. Hunters can make upgrades to their Fort during the Day using materials gathered during the Night.
Hunting at Night
Hunters must build a Basic Wall before they can defended the Fort by hunting during the Night. Mice found during the Night are weak only to Arcane and Shadow weapons and have a preference for Crescent Cheese or Moon Cheese, though Standard Cheese and SUPER|brie+ may be used to lesser effect.
The Night is divided into 6 phases: Twilight, Midnight, Pitch, Utter Darkness, First Light, and Dawn. The goal for Hunters is to survive the first 5 stages of Night and reach Dawn, where the Monster of the Meteor may be encountered. Mice encountered at Night will damage the Hunter's Wall and when its Health reaches 0, the Hunter will be moved back to Day.
Materials found during the Night may be used during the Day to upgrade the defensive features of the Hunter's Fort.
HUD
The HUD shows the Hunter's Fort and the various defensive features. When Hunters first enter Fort Rox the various defensive features are shown as dotted outlines which are replaced with images of the features as they are built and upgraded.
Defensive features can only be upgraded during the Day. The Upgrade interface may be opened by clicking on a defensive feature or by clicking on the Upgrade button found at the bottom center of the HUD.
The HUD tracks the following items:
- The Mage Tower's status and available Tower Mana
- Inventory of Meteorite Pieces, Howlite, and Bloodstone
- Available Upgrades -- The Upgrade Button is highlighted when upgrades are available
- Inventory of Gouda, SUPER|brie+, Crescent and Moon cheeses. Hunters can arm cheeses through the mouseover
Selecting Defend Fort will allow Hunters to enter the Night. During Night, the current phase of the night and the number of hunts remaining until Dawn are shown at the top of the HUD.. When Dawn is reached, the anger level of the mice and the damage modifier are shown at the top of the HUD.
Hunters can choose to retreat while hunting at night and any remaining wall health will be preserved. The option to retreat is not available during Dawn.
Day Hunting
Mice found during the Day are primarily weak to Law weapons, though Shadow and Arcane weapons can be used to lesser effect. Standard Cheeses and SUPER|brie+ are preferred by mice during the Day, but Crescent Cheese and Moon Cheese will attract mice at a lower rate. Mice found during the Day drop Meteorite Pieces and Tower Mana.
The Hunter's Fort defenses can only be upgraded during the Day. The Ballista, Cannon, Wall, and Moat defenses have no effect while Hunting during the Day.
- Wall
- During the Day Hunters will attract mice that drop Meteorite Pieces used to build the Basic Wall and to repair any damage the wall receives while hunting during the Night.
- Hunters must build a Basic Wall before they can hunt during the Night.
- Mage Tower
- The Mage Tower can be activated during the Day to take advantage of the Spotlight Enchantment which will provide double Meteorite Piece drops, and the Power Enchantment which provides a chance to instantly capture any mouse.
- The Healing Enchantment and Sunsphere Enchantment have no effect when hunting during the Day.
- The Mining Materials Manager Mouse will drop Tower Mana used to power the Hunter's Mage Tower.
- Tower Mana is consumed on every hunt while the Mage Tower is active.

Night Hunting
"This is my fort, I have to defend it."
"I've done what I can to ready my fort and I am now ready to fight."
"I await nightfall to face the hordes of Meteorite Miners and stand against them for as long as I can!"
Mice found during Night are weak only to Arcane and Shadow weapons. Crescent Cheese and Moon Cheese are preferred by mice at Night, but Standard Cheesae and SUPER|brie+ will attract mice at a lower rate. Mice found during the Night drop Meteorite Pieces, Tower Mana, Howlite, Bloodstone, and Dawn Dust. These items are primarily used to upgrade the Hunter's Fort defenses. The Hunter's Fort defenses can only be upgraded during the Day.
To hunt during the Night, select Defend Fort at the upper left of the HUD which will open the following pop-up:
- "Are you prepared to defend your fort?"
- "Once night falls, an unending horde of terrors will descend."
- "Defend your fort and survive as long as you can!"
- "Spend [X] Meteorite Piece(s) to repair to full health?"
- This message is shown only when a Hunter attempts to enter night with a damaged wall. Checking the box in front of this message will spend the Meteorite Pieces necessary to bring the wall to full health.
- "I need more time"
- or
- "I'm ready to defend!"
Wall
The Basic Wall is required before Hunters may defend the Fort at night. When the Wall is reduced to zero health, Hunters will be moved back to Day and the Wall will need to be repaired using Meteorite Pieces before Hunters can hunt during the Night again.
Wall Health
The Wall's health determines how long Hunters will be able to survive during the night. It is not possible to partially repair a wall, but Hunters may enter night with a partially damaged wall that is not at full health.
- Basic Wall - Maximum Health: 50
- Howlite Wall - Maximum Health: 100
- Blood Bastion - Maximum Health: 200
- Moonbeam Fortress - Maximum Health: 350
Wall Damage
Mice encountered during the Night will damage the Hunter's Wall under certain circumstances.
- Failure to Catch (FTC) = 3 damage
- Red Box FTC = 5 damage
- Failure to Attract (FTA) = 5 damage
- Nightfire Mouse, FTC = 10 damage
- Battering Ram Mouse, any encounter = 15 damage
Wall Damage -- Dawn
When Hunters reach Dawn the damage effects to the wall are multiplied by an additional 100% after each catch of a Monster of the Meteor. Any FTC of a Monster of the Meteor or Dawn Guardian will result in greater damage to the Hunter's wall. Damage from encountering a Battering Ram Mouse is not multiplied.

- "Cancel"
- or
- "Retreat"
Fort Rox Mice -- Night
The mice found during the Night in Fort Rox are weak only to Arcane and Shadow weapons. Law weapons are ineffective.

Hunting Strategy
Hunting tips by Larry
Hello there, hunter!
Welcome to Fort Rox, recently under siege thanks to the commotion caused by the fallen meteor, the citizens here need your help to fight off the mice that have begun to overrun the area.
During the day, things are a lot calmer and the mice will listen to reason, making them vulnerable to Law traps. You will also be able to use this time to build up your resources and defenses in preparation for the attack. You will need to build the Basic Wall before you will be ready to defend your fort.
The day might feel like a walk in the park, however, don't get too comfortable. At night, things start to get a little... "hairier"...
You are gonna have to do your best to hold off the assault on Varmint Valley throughout the night. The night lasts 130 hunts. As you hunt through the night, different types of mice will begin to appear. Make sure you pay attention to the time of night and adjust your trap setup accordingly.
Mice will damage your wall if you fail to capture them and some even if you do capture them! If your wall gets destroyed, you will be forced to retreat until day, where you can rebuild and try again.
Survive the night and make it to dawn where the toughest mice lie in wait!
