====Recent Maintenance and Downtime====
+
====MouseHunt's 13th Birthday Celebration!====
Today shortly after the Lunar New Year event came to an end the game began to experience issues including trap setups and hunt results changing. Upon the issue coming to our attention we confirmed there was an issue and decided to put the game into unscheduled maintenance due to the severity of the problem.
+
March 7 will mark the 13th year of MouseHunting! To celebrate, the King is once again opening the doors of his secret SUPER|brie+ Factory for a behind the scenes look at how the magical cheese is made. Of course swinging the doors open on a factory pumping out the tastiest cheese known to mice is sure to create a minor vermin problem.
 +
 
 +
While taking in the sights, hunters are asked to setup camp to help defend the factory and recover assembly line parts that have been picked up by the invading mice. There's SUPER|brie+, the Anniversary Aura, Party Charms, and more to earn!
 +
 
 +
An especially rich addition this year: The SUPER|brie+ Factory Break Room has seen the addition of the SUPER|snax+ Vending Machine stocked with snack packs of tasty cheese!

====Mastering Cheese Production====
 +
Pump cheese though the assembly line of the SUPER|brie+ Factory by hunting mice attracted to either Coggy Colby or the all new Speedy Coggy Colby. Arming either of these types of cheese will attract mice running amok in the factory and capturing them will allow the delicious cheese to flow!
 +
 
 +
You can collect Coggy Colby by hunting with any standard cheese type at the factory. You'll find some Speedy Coggy Colby as a reward for completing the SUPER|brie+ Factory Adventure, along with other nifty adventure rewards!

Take cheese production to revolutionary levels of industrialization by using Factory Repair Charms! These mechanical wonders will activate your pump each catch and add an additional +10 liters per catch, even if you don't have Coggy Colby armed. Additionally, Factory Repair Charms have a chance of attracting the Factory Repair Technician Mouse who drops a generous quantity of factory repair parts! Have extra factory parts?

 +
 
 +
Once the cheese is pumped all the way through the assembly line you'll encounter Vincent, The Magnificent! Year after year this mouse stakes claim to the SUPER|brie+ Factory as their own personal cheese production facility!
 +
 
 +
You'll need to capture Vincent before the SUPER|brie+ reward crate can be claimed. Capturing Vincent will also reward a Golden Punch Ticket which you can spend at the various shops at the SUPER|brie+ Factory for rewards.
 +
 
 +
====Touring the Factory====
 +
There are four rooms to tour within the SUPER|brie+ Factory, each with a unique population of mice to encounter and factory repair part to recover as loot. Hunters are free to move to and from any room taking in the sights and hunting down different types of invading mice.

Upgrading this room will increase the number of SUPER|tokens+ found in the reward crate which you can spend at the SUPER|snax+ Vending Machine via the HUD for various bags of tasty cheese.

 +
'''The Pump Room'''
 +
 
 +
Various time-controlling mice have synchronized themselves with this room and are using the '''Pressurized Pump Pipes''' in their own study of time control. Upgrade this room to restore normal pressure in the production pipeline and pump more liters of cheese with each hunt, speeding up how quickly the reward crate fills.
 +
 
 +
'''The QA Room'''
 +
 
 +
Various cupcake mice have setup shop in the QA Room where they're using the Quality Cogs to fine-tune and carefully calibrate their own Cupcake Recipes.

 +

'''Hunter's Horn Rewind Charm'''
  
The dev team got to work investigating what the cause of problem was. After some time we identified a network configuration issue isolated to a group of servers that were brought online shortly after the Lunar New Year event came to an end. This network issue caused connectivity problems between the web server and a data server causing the problem with trap setups not saving or changing.
+
Harness the power of time control! These charms will reset your horn timer should you fail to capture a mouse. Complete the SUPER|brie+ Factory adventure to claim 10 of these powerful charms.

Thanks for your patience and understanding while the team investigated the network issue at our hosting provider. Unfortunately during the period of instability hunters may have experienced strange events or side effects such as their trap setup or hunt results changing. If you experienced a major issue please contact us via support with a screenshot of the issue and description of what you experienced. We appreciate your patience as our response times may be slower due to an increased quantity of support requests.
