Birthday Party Zone (2015)
MouseHunt is turning seven years old! WOW! The King is celebrating with cupcakes for everyone!
Description and Requirements
The Birthday Party Zone is the special event location during MouseHunt's Seventh Birthday in 2015, requiring a minimum rank of Recruit to enter. Mice are unable to steal gold or points, but may steal multiple pieces of cheese if not caught.
MouseHunt's Seventh Birthday event came to an end on 19 March 2015; hunters remaining in the area were moved to the Vacant Lot, where the shoppes remained open for an additional week, and where hunters could cancel a cupcake order that they could no longer complete in order to make slots available for attempting other orders.
HUD Description
The area includes a Heads-up Display to track progress in collecting and shipping orders of cupcakes. Upon arriving at the birthday celebration, you can pick up to three orders to work on at once from the heads-up display.

Hunting Tips by Larry
The Birthday Cupcake Delivery Extravaganza is a celebration for MouseHunt’s seventh birthday. Hunters are tasked with helping the King recover cupcakes from mice and fulfill orders. Just make sure to dust the rodent fur off of them a bit before shipping them off for consumption.
First things first, you are going to want to secure a supply of Cupcake Colby!
Arming standard bait will attract birthday themed mice that will have a chance to drop Cupcake Colby potions.
Once you have some Cupcake Colby, you may arm it and start attracting birthday themed mice that will have a chance at dropping Cupcakes!
Cupcakes are required in order to complete orders from The King and earn this years unique birthday rewards!
At this point you may also want to take a look at the available list of cupcake orders from the HUD.
Clicking “Orders Available” will take you to the cupcake order popup page. This page tracks your progress throughout the cupcake caper event as well as this years unique rewards and how to obtain them.
You may accept up to three orders at a time but be careful! Once you have accepted an order you can not get rid of it until you ship it! A hunters word is his bond after all! Once an order is accepted, those mice will then join the party and become able to be attracted with Cupcake Colby.
Mice attracted with Cupcake Colby from an active order have the greatest chance at dropping cupcakes! So make sure you take those orders!
Once you ship the order you will be rewarded with loot related to the year of the order that you completed!
Phew! That was a mouthful! Good luck and Happy Birthday Hunting!
