Appendix C: Gold and SUPER|Brie+
Gold
- As you progress through Gnawnia, one may often find themself short on gold. Hunting is the normal way to earn gold, but it can also be slow. There are several other ways to earn gold if you're looking to speed the process up a bit.
- One good way to earn gold, if you have some real money to spare, is to donate to the developers of MouseHunt, using the Donate button. You will get a special kind of cheese called SUPER|Brie+. This cheese is very valuable and can be often sold for several thousand (as of this time of writing) per piece from the interface at Friends → Trade SUPER|Brie+.
- There are certain groups of kind MouseHunters, who are willing to help new players out, with competitions, trap funding programs, or advice programs. A list can be found in the Links section of this guide.
- Individual MouseHunters also run competitions with gold and SUPER|Brie+ prizes; these can be found in the Events and Competitions section of the MouseHunt forums. Go ahead and try your luck. Just beware of those with entry fees; some of those may be run by scammers.
- Just be sure not to beg or demand gold or SUPER|Brie+; it is considered rude. A little politeness, respect, and willingness to learn will go a long way when dealing with other MouseHunters.
- In the late game, the best place to earn gold is the Catacombs.
- When gathering potions in the Laboratory, use the following setup for efficiency:
- Weapon: ACRONYM
- Base: Aqua Base / Dehydration Base
- Cheese: Brie
- When hunting in the Catacombs, use the ACRONYM, Dehydration Base, and Radioactive Blue.
SUPER|Brie+
- SUPER|Brie+ is a special cheese in MouseHunt, with several unique properties.
- It is advertised as being the cheese with the highest attraction rate in most locations (i.e. locations that don't require crafted or converted cheese). This is true, but probably the least useful purpose of SUPER|Brie+.
- There are particular rare mice (Black Widow, Nibbler, Worker, Cook, and prize mice) that are more attracted to SUPER|Brie+, which is helpful for hunters looking to complete their mouse collections. Just be aware that it can be pricey endeavor.
- Potions are typically more effective on SUPER|Brie+ than regular Brie, converting more pieces per potion. This can save you time hunting for potions at such locations as the Laboratory and the Great Gnarled Tree.
- It can be smashed with the Hunter's Hammer (available at Inventory → Crafting), to produce Magic Essence. This are used in several recipes:
- Moon cheese, used for attracting the elusive Lycan Mouse.
- Maki cheese, used to increase the attraction rate for Students in Furoma.
- It can also be added to the recipes for Ancient, Runic, Shell, Gumbo, and Crunchy cheese to increase the number of pieces made, to minimize the use of scarce crafting ingredients.
- Three units of Magic Essence are also needed to craft a powerful trap weapon, the Arcane Capturing Rod of Never Yielding Mystery.
- If you had accidentally smashed your SUPER|Brie+, you can reconstruct it by crafting the Magic Essence with 1 Curds and Whey and 1 Salt.
- There are several ways of obtaining it:
- Donating (using the Donate button) real money to the developers of MouseHunt. Donating also grants you temporary use of the Lucky Golden Shield, which boosts your trap "luck" by 7. "Luck" slightly increases the chance of catching a mouse, and the chance of loot drops.
- Buying SUPER|Brie+ from other players using gold. To do that, go to Friends → Trade SUPER|Brie+. Keep in mind this can be an expensive option, as SUPER|Brie+ is highly sought after, and can go for several thousand gold a piece.
- There is a cheaper option: the SUPER|Brie+ Price Informants. They run a "bank" that sells SUPER|Brie+ at a discounted price (in limited amounts), especially to lower-ranked players. If you choose to use this service, do not abuse their kindness by reselling the SUPER|Brie+. Resellers will lose their support, and be barred from ever buying from the bank again.
