HitGrab's Facebook game MouseHunt is a deceptively simple game where the goal is to capture as many mice as possible. There are rare kinds of mice that earn more money, different types of cheeses that attract different types of mice, and you can even upgrade your trap as you progress through the game. Clearly, there's a lot to learn.
Thankfully, Dave Vanderburg, a developer on the game, has graciously agreed to share some important tips and tricks that will improve your mouse hunting skills in no time.
1. Work With Friends
"Team work pays off! Sounding your Hunter's Horn starts the hunt for mice. Friends hunting in the your current location will also be able to sound your horn for you, which results in the possibility of catching mice even while taking a break from the game!"
2. Manage Your Resources
"Purchasing expensive Swiss cheese to catch tiny mice that are worth a little gold is a quick way to end up being bankrupt. You will need to pay special attention to how much gold you earn catching mice and balance the cost of your cheese with your income."
3. Strategize: Bait Different Types Of Mice To Your Trap!
"While Cheddar and Marble cheese are great, Brie is even better. However, no cheese can compare to the magical essence and power of the SUPER|brie+ cheese! It's attractive scent and enchanting sparkle is sure to draw in more mice to your trap."
4. Patience
"It takes time to master the art of hunting mice! Sometimes patience is key to catching those truly rare mice or scoring some amazing loot. Save your gold to build the ultimate mouse trap: The Mouse DeathBot!"
