==== Ronza is on her way! ====
+
==== The Town of Gnawnia and Windmill Welcome New Hunters ====
Ronza's airship has been spotted en route to the Kingdom of Gnawnia! Unfortunately, a brief skirmish with some Sky Pirates caused a gigantic crate of her precious Chrome Bits to fall overboard! Mice all across the Kingdom have been snatching them up so Ronza needs your help to retrieve them.
+
Larry the Friendly Knight has spent seemingly countless hours training new Recruits and helping them hone their hunting skills. Over his many years of diligent tutelage, Larry has certainly refined his process and often tried brand new training techniques. Today, in coordination with the King and utilizing some of the feedback from the Great Gnawnian Census Larry has put together his most recent changes to his methods!
  
Collect as many Chrome Bits as you can by hunting mice anywhere in the Kingdom and when Ronza lands on July 27, she'll show her gratitude by offering a wide selection of valuable rewards!
+
Thanks to Larry's updated techniques, new hunters in the Town of Gnawnia will now have a much easier time attracting and capturing most mice while reaping greater rewards for securing the town. After many years of feasting on stolen cheese from new hunters, the Town of Gnawnia mice have become more picky about which types of cheese they are attracted to -- as a consequence, hunters should be able to more effectively single out bounty targets by using their preferred bait!

+
Meanwhile, the Windmill has received an upgrade by order of the King, and will now churn out Packets of Flour reliably every time a mouse is caught. The faster the Windmill spins, the more flour it will consistently produce! To account for this increased rate of production, the Windmill Cheese Shoppe now only accepts orders for Grilled Cheese in batches of 5, which means more attempts at capturing the elusive Captain Croissant!
  
==== Recover Chrome Bits to Earn Vouchers ====
+
<div style="text-align: center; border: 0.083em solid; border-radius: 0.416em; padding: 0.416em">
Help Ronza recover her Chrome Bits by hunting throughout Gnawnia. Recover enough and you will be rewarded with Chrome Kit Vouchers! Ronza will award you one voucher for every 100 Chrome Bits you recover, up to a maximum of two vouchers. These vouchers can be used to purchase some of Ronza's famous Chrome Upgrade Kits and apparently, she has added a new one to her collection this year!

==== A Cheese Making Breakthrough! ====
<div style="padding-left: 50px">These vouchers can be used to purchase Chrome Upgrade Kits from Ronza's Trapsmith or a selection of alternative items from Ronza's General Store. Each Chrome Upgrade Kit requires a single voucher along with a specific quantity of gold whereas the alternative items require only the voucher with no additional gold cost!</div>
 
  
==== Strange Things are Afloat! ====
+
New and veteran MouseHunters alike will be pleased to hear that the King has been hard at work developing a new cheese aging process which increases the efficacy of cheese in attracting mice. More affordable cheeses like Cheddar and Marble have received the greatest gains from this new development. However, most types of cheese including Gouda and crafted varieties of cheese will benefit from this new process by failing to attract less often.
Rumour has it that Ronza has been hard at work on developing a groundbreaking new form of dirigible technology for use in the Floating Islands. Little is known for sure as to the specifics of this enigmatic project of hers but some have speculated that it may involve exploring even higher altitudes and possibly uncovering the truth behind the ancient legend of a mysterious palace above the clouds.
 
  
One thing that is known is that Ronza is offering a new and very unique reward this year for hunters who are able to collect 200 Chrome Bits. The reward is a strange and rather dangerous looking crate that is plastered with warning symbols. The crates are all currently locked so the contents are still a mystery but Ronza has claimed that she will share the secrets contained within as soon as her project is completed. For now, the hunters of Gnawnia will have to just wait and wonder.
+
Where Cheddar Cheese used to attract a mouse roughly half of the time, Larry has measured the new attraction rate to be around 70% using this new process. Similarly, Marble now attracts at a rate of 75%, Swiss at 80%, Brie at 85%, and Gouda 90%.
  
<div style="text-align:center">
+
In combination with Larry's updated hunting techniques, various mice indigenous to Gnawnia have had specific weaknesses exposed and will be easier to capture for all hunters.
'''NEW Hazardous Materials Crate'''
 
  
This bizarre crate appears quite volatile and is currently locked but Ronza claims that she will reveal the secrets contained inside very soon.
+
These training endeavors are just a part of Larry's endless commitment to improving his training methods! As Larry continues to hone his methods and learn new techniques, future generations of MouseHunters can expect further improvements as time goes on.
  
Rewarded for collecting 200 Chrome Bits!

==== Aerial Treasure Master Deal Ends Soon ====
</div>
 
  
==== Chrome Bit Rewards ====
+
Hunters throughout Hollow Heights have made good use of the new supply routes charted by the Floating Islands Cartographer to seek out and intercept the many treasures of the Empyrean Empire. With the treasure hunting efforts in full swing the exploration supplies assembled by the King are beginning to wane. Today is the final day to pick up the special Aerial Treasure Master Bundle from the Premium Shoppe before it's gone.
Chrome Bits can be used to purchase valuable items and unique rewards once Ronza lands!

'''Big, Back, with some new things in the Shack!'''<br/>
 
Big Jaq is back in the Queso Canyon with all sorts of spicy deals!
 
 
<blockquote>
 
 
==== Jaqueline the Spice Merchant Returns to Queso Canyon ====
 
The travelling spice merchant Jaqueline, or "Big Jaq" as she's known to friends, has once again setup her Spice Shack in the Queso Canyon! Visit any General Store in the areas of the Queso Canyon region to browse her popup shop where all sorts of spicy deals are available.
 
 
While Big Jaq is visiting, there are also some unique loot drops to find! Boost your Bland Queso collection by recovering Kegs of Bland Queso from mice throughout the Queso Canyon region.
 
 
The Mobile App requires version 1.108.0 in order to use the new Cork Material exchange and purchase the new Blooming Rubber Plants.
 
 
This update is live on the Google Play store but unfortunately, this update is still pending approval from Apple and is not yet available on the App Store. We hope this update will be approved soon but in the meantime, iOS users can visit www.mousehuntgame.com from a web browser in order to use the Cork Material exchange and purchase the new Rubber Plants.
 
 
==== Kegs of Bland Queso ====
 
Big Jaq's Bland Queso Kegs have been stolen! Catch mice in Queso Canyon for a chance to get a cheesy reward (she won't mind you keeping the kegs for yourself). The kegs come in three sizes and you can use Wild Tonic to shake loose '''double''' the kegs when mice drop them!
 
 
*Small
 
:'''250 Bland Queso'''
 
 
*Medium
 
:'''500 Bland Queso'''
 
 
*Large
 
:'''1,500 Bland Queso'''
 
 
'''150 Wild Tonic'''
 
DOUBLE keg drops with Wild Tonic!
 
 
These Kegs of Queso can be collected '''anywhere in the region''', including the Queso Geyser! Fortunately, the kegs are heat-resistant and buoyant enough to safely float in the liquid hot queso at the geyser. As a result, the kegs will appear as loot drops directly from mice and not in nests.
 
 
==== Spice Leaf and Cork Material Exchange ====
 
 
Big Jaq has expanded her wares this year and now offers a Cork Material Exchange in her shop in addition to the Spice Leaf Exchange! You can now exchange up your Nachore, Spice Leaves, AND Cork Materials for higher tier items! Make sure you don't miss out!

TOWN OF GNAWNIA AND WINDMILL UPDATES

5 October 2021

Revisions to the Town of Gnawnia and Windmill!
Faster progression, increased rewards, and improved attraction rates.

The Town of Gnawnia and Windmill Welcome New Hunters

Larry the Friendly Knight has spent seemingly countless hours training new Recruits and helping them hone their hunting skills. Over his many years of diligent tutelage, Larry has certainly refined his process and often tried brand new training techniques. Today, in coordination with the King and utilizing some of the feedback from the Great Gnawnian Census Larry has put together his most recent changes to his methods!

Thanks to Larry's updated techniques, new hunters in the Town of Gnawnia will now have a much easier time attracting and capturing most mice while reaping greater rewards for securing the town. After many years of feasting on stolen cheese from new hunters, the Town of Gnawnia mice have become more picky about which types of cheese they are attracted to -- as a consequence, hunters should be able to more effectively single out bounty targets by using their preferred bait!

Meanwhile, the Windmill has received an upgrade by order of the King, and will now churn out Packets of Flour reliably every time a mouse is caught. The faster the Windmill spins, the more flour it will consistently produce! To account for this increased rate of production, the Windmill Cheese Shoppe now only accepts orders for Grilled Cheese in batches of 5, which means more attempts at capturing the elusive Captain Croissant!

The Windmill HUD within the mobile app may appear out of date until the latest update has been downloaded. Keep an eye out for an update v1.112.0 (or higher) in the App Store and Google Play.

A Cheese Making Breakthrough!

New and veteran MouseHunters alike will be pleased to hear that the King has been hard at work developing a new cheese aging process which increases the efficacy of cheese in attracting mice.
