Hunter's Titles are indicators of experience and seniority in MouseHunt. As a hunter performs his hunts, he becomes more experienced. A more experienced hunter gains access to new areas (though occasionally, they must collect the proper loot) and becomes more effective at hunting and at using potions. The ranks go as follows:

  • Novice
A Novice hunter only has access to the Town of Gnawnia and Meadow locations. The rank of Novice is signified by a white shield next to the player's name.
  • Apprentice
Upon reaching the rank of Apprentice, the player can now hunt in the Harbour location. The rank of Apprentice is signified by a yellow shield next to the player's name.
  • Journeyman
Upon reaching the rank of Journeyman, the player can now hunt in the Mountain location. The rank of Journeyman is signified by an orange shield next to the player's name.
  • Master
Upon reaching the rank of Master, the player is eligible to hunt in the Laboratory, Town of Digby, and Mousoleum locations of the Burroughs area, assuming they have collected the proper loot. It is also the first ranking at which potions can be collected. The rank of Master is signified by a purple shield next to the player's name.
  • Grandmaster
Upon reaching the rank of Grandmaster, the player is eligible to hunt in the Training Grounds location, assuming they have collected the proper loot. Grandmasters also receive a bonus when using potions. The rank of Grandmaster is signified by a blue shield next to the player's name.
  • Legendary
As of October 14, there is no hunting area exclusive to Legends. However, Legends receive a larger bonus when using potions than Grandmasters. The rank of Legend is signified by a green shield next to the player's name.
  • Hero
This is currently the highest available rank. As of October 14, there is no hunting area exclusive to Heroes. However, Heroes receive the largest current bonus when using potions. The rank of Hero is signified by a purple shield with a yellow star in the center next to the player's name.
  • Donor
The Mousehunt developers recognize players that have donated money through PayPal to purchase Super Brie. Being a donor is not a 'rank' but all donors are given a golden shield next to their name to signify their donation. Players need only donate once to receive their golden shield.

The method for calculating rank is based partially on accumulated points, partially on the frequency of hunts and the sounding of the horn, and partially on the type of mice caught. As such, every hunter will level up at a different time, which cannot be predicted.
