Upcoming Facebook changes affecting www.MouseHuntGame.com

21 November 2012

What is happening?

On December 5, Facebook will be imposing some restrictions on apps that run outside of the main Facebook website. These policy changes will affect how you play MouseHunt outside of Facebook.

What does this mean?

Hunters who enjoy playing on www.MouseHuntGame.com will need to create a login to connect to their existing MouseHunt account. It will be super simple. All game data will be tied to this login and shared between both the Facebook and offsite version of MouseHunt in the same way it is now.

Starting next week, hunters will be able to create their logins and tie them to their existing MouseHunt accounts.

After December 5, hunters will no longer be able to login using their Facebook account when playing outside of Facebook.

I like playing on Facebook - What about me?

If you currently play on Facebook (apps.facebook.com/mousehunt) exclusively, you will not be affected and don't need to do anything.

What about the mobile iOS app?

The mobile app for iOS currently uses FB Connect and will be unaffected by this change. A Facebook account is required in order to use the mobile app.

What happens on December 5?

Once the change goes live on December 5, hunters can visit www.MouseHuntGame.com at any time to create their logins and tie it to their existing MouseHunt account.

I don't want to create a login

  • You can simply play on Facebook (apps.facebook.com/mousehunt) and will not be affected

I like using PayPal and/or Cherry Credits

  • You must create a login as these services will only be available on www.MouseHuntGame.com
  • Leftover Cherry Credits must all be spent before December 5 if you are not creating a login

What's next?

The login system will go live next week so that hunters can begin creating logins and tying them to their existing MouseHunt accounts. More information about the change and in what other ways it will affect hunters soon to come.

The Living Garden Has Opened!

14 November 2012

The Living Garden Has Opened!

The long-forbidden Living Garden has finally been opened to the public again, but something sinister is going on! The wild and exotic plants and flowers of the Living Garden have been overrun by strange mice exhibiting stranger behaviour...

Living Garden

The tiny mice have adapted the environment around them to their purpose and have strapped on various pieces of plants as weapons and armour! Even stranger, they've begun hoarding tiny glowing plants called Garden Essences and protecting them at all costs.

Lost City

Nearby, a town in the desert has fallen under a terrible curse and become lost between worlds! The mice that inhabit the town have all been turned incorporeal, ghostly, and fierce, but they too are stockpiling Garden Essences for their own reasons.

Sand Dunes

In between the two lies the Sand Dunes of the desert, where Grubling Mice race from scrap of food to scrap of food, gorging themselves as best they can and making the difficult desert life ever more challenging for all the other mice. And as before, all the mice here are collecting and protecting Garden Essences. What is going on?

Wild New Mice!

Strawberry Hotcakes Mouse

This little firebrand is simultaneously the most dangerous and most helpful mouse in the Living Garden. Threatening her friends? A FLOOD OF HOT SAUCE. Food too bland? A FLOOD OF HOT SAUCE. Her peppergun has incredible range, and the pepper reservoir on her back seems to never run dry, so don't try to outrange or outlast her. At best you can hope to surprise her, but act quickly because when surprised she unleashes A FLOOD OF HOT SAUCE.

Ethereal Enchanter Mouse

There's some debate as to why the Lost City was lost between dimensions, but the actions of certain mice are definitely suspect. This mouse was known to dabble in all kinds of unsavory arcane activities and rituals. However, since he was trapped like everyone else, suspicion quickly waned.

Grubling Herder Mouse

Grubling Herders are a solemn and insular group, trained from birth to direct and control the voracious Grubling mice away from vital crops. They hail from a place of shadow known only as "Muddy'Deeb", and dedicate their lives to ensuring the rampage of the Grubling mice remains under their control. The Grublings must flow!

Garden Essences

Small, glowing plants, these Garden Essences are jealously guarded by the mice. They certainly contain great power, but how best to use it? Make sure to check out your new "Book of Living Recipes" when you get to the Living Garden to see all the different things you can make from them, but be ready to experiment to find out exactly what combines with what.

Minigames!

Every new area has its own new minigame associated with it. Attentive players will be able to dispel curses, collect water for Thirsty mice, and watch out for the Grubling stampedes! While not mandatory, paying careful attention and playing these minigames will make it a lot easier to collect Garden Essences and craft fantastic new recipes! To play these minigames, visit the shops in each area to purchase and use cool new charms with unique effects!

And much, much more!

Of course this isn't all that's going on in the Living Garden, Sand Dunes, and Lost City, but you'll have to explore and experiment to find out more! There's a terrible secret hiding in amongst the plants and mice, and world-changing lore waiting to be uncovered! Only dedication, hard work, and a mountain of patience will serve you in uncovering the secrets of... The Living Garden
