MouseHunt is turning seven!

5 March 2015

MouseHunt is turning seven years old! WOW! The King is celebrating with cupcakes for everyone

Cupcake Extravaganza

The King has organized a birthday cupcake extravaganza! However, several mice with a sweet tooth are proving to be a usual nuisance by stealing cupcakes. The King needs the help of hunters to recover the stolen cupcakes and ship out orders. Just make sure to dust a bit of the rodent fur off before shipping them for consumption...
Upon arriving at the birthday celebration, you can pick up to three orders to work on at once from the heads-up display. There are seven different varieties of orders available, each celebrating a different year of MouseHunting. While you have a particular order active, you'll notice a few mice visiting your trap that originally appeared in the Kingdom during the order's respective year. These mice almost always carry a cupcake and a few even have other bonus loot with them!

Collecting Cupcake Colby

In order to lure cupcake carrying mice, you'll need similarly-themed bait: Cupcake Colby. This sweet cheese is produced by Cupcake Colby Potions that can be collected as loot at the birthday party zone. Once you've stock piled some Cupcake Colby, arm it to lure cupcake-dropping mice out of hiding!

Types of Cupcakes

There are five types of cupcakes that can be found as loot while hunting with Cupcake Colby. Cupcakes may also occasionally show up as the Gift of the Day to send to friends for free!

Red, Yellow, and Blue Cupcakes are the most commonly found type of cupcakes. They're used in every variety of order. If you find yourself with a few too many of a specific colour, visit the General Store where you can exchange 12 of a single colour for 6 differently-coloured cupcakes.

Green and Rainbow are harder to find than the other three cupcakes. More difficult orders will require more Green, and orders from year six and seven always require one or two Rainbow cupcakes. You'll also find these cupcakes in Daily Loyalty Chests!

Types of Cupcake Orders

There are seven different types of orders you can fulfill, one for each year of MouseHunting! Later year orders require more cupcakes, but they come with greater rewards!

While you're actively working on an order, a few mice that were released during that year can be encountered. Although these mice may vary in power type weaknesses, their insatiable love of sugar has them on an out-of-control sugar rush. Mice you encounter at the birthday party zone will have weaknesses to ALL power types, although, their typical weaknesses are still likely to be their greatest. These mice drop cupcakes the most often so be sure to always have an order on the go!

Choosing orders lets you pick your own level of hunting difficulty and rewards!
