| − | ====Festive Comet Smashes Into Gnawnia==== | + | ====Love is in the Air!==== |
| | | | |
| − | The yearly celestial event known as the Festive Comet has crashed into Gnawnia just south of the Town of Gnawnia Castle with a snowy kaboom! The collision instantly transformed the Kingdom into a wintery wonderland full of festive snow and holiday cheer! However, it seems one mouse is bent on destroying the snowy ambience by using several over-sized space heaters to melt the lovely festive landscape into a slushy and disgusting mess. Yuck!
| + | All throughout Gnawnia, hunters and mice alike are cozying up to one another and even Larry has been seen carving a heart into the Great Gnarled Tree. |
| | | | |
| − | ====Building Golems to Destroy Heaters====
| + | The outburst of affection has caused some mice to pair off, possibly explaining the near endless population of mice. During this outburst of affection, you may find yourself catching two mice at the same time! |
| | | | |
| − | '''Explosive Christmas Crackers''' | + | While hunting anywhere in the Kingdom, you can encounter a mouse that has paired off with a Valentine's Event Mouse. Should this occur, you'll capture '''both mice with a single piece of cheese!''' Keep an eye on your Hunter's Journal for an especially lovely looking entry when this occurs. |
| | | | |
| − | Luckily, the blast of winter weather has also brought with it beloved Winter Snow Golems. These powerful friends can be sent out to any location you've mapped and gained access to in order to retrieve all sorts of useful goodies! Where you send your golems will determine the type of loot which with they return. However, no matter where you send them, they'll bring back Explosive Christmas Crackers. These festive ordnance are just what you'll need to demolish the space heaters which are trying to turn the Great Winter Hunt into the Great Muddy Waterfront. Again I say: Yuck!
| + | ====Lovely Loot Opportunities==== |
| | | | |
| − | '''Pecan Pecorino''' | + | When capturing a Valentine's Event Mouse that has coupled off with another, you'll find a variety of attractive loot items including Valentine Charms, Lucky Valentine Charms, King's Credits, Ultimate Luck Charms, collectibles, and more! |
| | | | |
| − | Collect Pecan Pecorino to attract mice carrying golem parts and assemble a golem to send on a loot mission. Once dispatched, your golem will return, after you take 25 hunts, with valuable loot and Explosive Christmas Crackers. Carefully pull the tab on your crackers to detonate its cheer in the direction of a space heater, obliterating both in the process. The Shorts-All-Year Mouse has setup 10 heaters in a row, each larger the the last, requiring more and more explosives to destroy.
| + | ====Attractive Treasure Maps==== |

| − | The Explosive Christmas Crackers provide a powerful, yet precise, bombardment. In the rubble of a demolished heater, you'll find useful Heat Exchanger Coils which you can re-purpose to upgrade your Golem Generators! Level up your golems to have them return with a greater quantity of more valuable loot, including more Explosive Christmas Crackers. Keep on upgrading and your loot collection abilities will really start to snowball!

| − | If you manage to destroy all of the heaters setup by the Shorts-All-Year Mouse, you'll be able to confront him in the cold. In this weakened state, you'll be able to catch him with his pants down... so to speak. Capturing the Shorts-All-Year Mouse will recover a pair of Plain Shorts which you can then fashion into a much more elaborate festive version using the heads-up display.
