Alrighty! I&#39;ve finished the Mouse P.I. story. It&#39;s a really fun game, I recommend it, as long as you enjoy shooters at all. I&#39;d love if they would sell artbooks and posters. Let&#39;s see what else is to come for the franchise, it&#39;s certainly a very fun game with awesome works of art, and not just visually, but also sound and voice acting. (Story is about 16 hours for me, if you ignore the card-based mini-game which I personally really dislike. 😅) Longer review (no real spoilers): https://steamcommunity.com/id/realzero/recommended/2416450 #MousePI #MousePIForHire

Now I wish we'd get new mouse-related cartoon movies! Sure, I'll re-watch Secret of NIMH, Great Mouse Detective, An American Tail and such multiple times, but I think now would be a good time for a new wave of rodent-based cartoon movies! 😊

Also, I hope they add a way to re-play missions, because I really want to upgrade all my weapons, because I really want this achievement...😁 Edit: In German it's simply called "Bumm, bumm, bumm!" (so...Boom, Boom, Boom!), which is far less funny.

I finally read the IGN review for the game, which caught attention online because it only rated the game 6/10. Now, don't get me wrong! It's totally fine not to like a game that I love. Or vice versa. But the reasoning for it, to me, are on the same level of hilariousity as their previous "too much water" Pokemon review. Let me quickly summarize what MOUSE is, very superficial: It is a "boomer shooter", which is inspired by movies and features a world where all characters are mice (and shrews). The IGN reviewers disliked: - Too many cheese puns - Too many movie references - The main character (who's supposed to be a private investigator) killing too many people - Too many levels having you fight against enemy hordes ... Too many killed people...in a First Person Shooter!
