Living Salt
01 June 2012
Living Salt
Salt left over from the ocean water that formed the Iceberg combined with Icewing's powerful magic has resulted in this tiny, salty mouse. Penned up for the long trip towards Gnawnia, they are only allowed to roam free once the Iceberg has reached the shores, since their tiny salty feet could destabilize the ice underfoot with too much roaming.
These mice will only appear after all the chests have been smashed and the Iceberg has reached Gnawnia's shores.
Catching one of these mice will allow you to quickly finish off an invasion.
Crushed Ice
It's time to bring the fight to the mice directly on the Iceberg! The King is offering tournament points and rewards for mice located on Icewing's Iceberg and wants YOU to go out and claim them!
Join a Crushed Ice tournament, hunt mice in the Iceberg, and earn Tournament Tokens!
Check them out here!
Tournament Kit
Looking for a competitive edge? This basket is packed with supplies to help you compete in tournaments! Inside you'll find 50 SUPER|brie+, 50 Champion Charms and a 1 month Luck Golden Shield!

Iceberg Invasion
24 May 2012
Iceberg Invasion
MouseHunters: Now we brave the icy waters and meet the mice on the frontline of their invasion force. With the upgrade to the Huntington complete, the new and improved icebreaker mounted onto the hull allows safe passage through the treacherous, icy chunks near the Iceberg. The Interlocking Hull Fragments that were collected by hunters have all been turned in to complete the upgrade.
Endless gratitude goes out toward those brave MouseHunters who displayed grandiose effort in collecting the Interlocking Hull Fragments. Without their efforts, none of this would be possible.
With safe passage secured, MouseHunters are urged to travel to the Iceberg and meet the full invasion force head-on for the final confrontation. Be warned: Such a task is not for the faint of heart!
Icewing Plushie
This limited edition plushie has been manufactured to help raise awareness about the latest threat to the kingdom.
For a short time the King has requested hunters share these tiny dolls with each other to spread the word to as many hunters as possible. Along with each of these fiercely cute squeezable dolls is a tag outlining the current dangers the kingdom faces, as well as a "wanted" ad for the capture of Icewing herself.
This plushie will be around until the 31st of May.
Stopping the Invasion
The Zones
Our brave and daring scouts have reported that the Iceberg is broken up into five distinct zones with different mice in each. The further down you go, the more dangerous it becomes! Between each zone is a General, a powerful mouse appointed by Icewing to defend the Iceberg from intruders.
Each General has been spotted carrying some sort of intense form of energy, which could prove quite useful if its function is discovered. Hunters will be required to defeat them before they can further progress!
Bonus Chests
Floating in the path of the Iceberg are three bonus chests holding supplies for the icy invasion. If you can defeat the Iceberg before it reaches them, their contents will be yours!
If the Iceberg crashes into them, their contents will be lost to you as they float ashore to be used by the invaders, so work quickly for the most rewards!
Icewing
Waiting deep within the depths of the mighty Iceberg, the fearsome Icewing commands and controls this icy invasion force against the Kingdom of Gnawnia. Race through the Iceberg to reach her before she moves on to supervise yet another invasion.
Be warned, hunter: This will not be an easy challenge, and Icewing is a fearsome and worthy foe. Do not take this task lightly!
Visit the Iceberg now to learn more from Larry's Tips and begin holding back this invasion!
Ice Drill
Ice Drill Mk. I
This specialized drill is used to quickly bore through ice, assisting hunters in reaching deeper depths of the Iceberg. Find it in the General Store!
It requires Drill Charges to operate, and can only be used 5 times during each Iceberg invasion before it overheats. It will be reusable after defeating an Iceberg invasion.
Your first purchase of the Ice Drill Mk. I comes with 3 Drill Charges, which can also be purchased from the General Store.
The Invading Force
Wolfskie Mouse
Using his keen sense of smell, the Wolfskie Mouse leads the pack and is able to sniff out the finest of cheese. Summoning feral courage and the brave spirits of his ancestors, this scout sneaks behind enemy lines to find poorly-protected stockpiles of cheese.
The Wolfskie Mouse has made a return and can be found on the Iceberg.
Snowblind Mouse
Having been caught by a stray ray of sunlight once too many, the Snowblind Mouse now dons protective gear every time he heads out. Unsatisfied with merely avoiding danger, however, he has upgraded his snow visor to display on-demand trap statistics that he uses to reformulate devious new cheese-stealing strategies on the fly.
Stickybomber Mouse
Was that a shadow, or was that a Stickybomber Mouse, setting up a cave-in above you? You can't know, at least not until the trap is sprung...
Running into one unprepared can definitely set you back, but those hunters who are properly equipped can set off their explosives before they are finished planting them, uncovering short-cuts deep into the heart of the Iceberg.
Find these and TONS of other new mice both at the Slushy Shoreline and on the Iceberg!
New Hunting Supplies
In the effort to hold back the invasion on the Slushy Shoreline, and in the shadow of the ever-looming Iceberg, the store owners of Gnawnia have been working tirelessly to bring new hunting supplies that will prove useful in preventing this icy catastrophe.
Find the blueprints to these new bases, purchase new charms, and check out all the other new items at the Slushy Shoreline Trapsmith, Charm Shoppe and General Store!
