About
MOUSE: P.I. For Hire is an action-packed first-person shooter that draws inspiration from the classic cartoons of the 1930s. Its black and white rubber hose visuals are drawn by hand, frame by frame, delivering a striking vintage aesthetic. Unravel layers of corruption with a thrilling noir-fueled detective story, lively environments to explore, an original big band jazz soundtrack, and a fully-loaded arsenal of cartoon weapons and devastating power-ups.
Meet Private Investigator Jack Pepper, a former war hero-turned-detective in a world where danger lurks even in the smallest mouse hole. Uncover the truth when a simple missing persons case quickly escalates into a complex web of intrigue, with corruption, kidnapping and murder all on the docket. Investigate the seedy underbelly of Mouseburg, battle heavily armed gangs and crooked cops, and discover clues to reveal the conspiracy buried underneath the surface.
From crackling machine guns to explosive firepower, each weapon in Pepper’s arsenal is designed to deploy non-stop cartoon chaos. Arm yourself with an array of classic, creatively twisted and experimental firearms, and consume powerful upgrades when you need that extra spinach-loaded punch! Lethal encounters and manic boss battles await in this boomer shooter-inspired, retro-vibed adventure - and the denizens of Mouseburg never go down without a fight.

Too few observations to say whether a discount moves this store's chart at all: across the last 30 days Steam · Top Sellers · Poland has just 18 day-to-day chart moves that followed a price cut, against 2,498 that did not. We are publishing the count instead of a direction — 20 is the fewest we will draw a conclusion from, and price collection outside the United States began on 6 August 2026.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Really fun casual shooter. Fun weapons and upgrades. Decent progression curve. Would recommend to all lovers of shooters.
Solid game. Great storyline and gun play.
Из плюсов — это новая игра, а не очередной сиквел, приквел или продолжение уже знакомой серии. Всегда приятно увидеть что-то самостоятельное, особенно в жанре, где в последнее время довольно много игр строятся вокруг уже известных названий. Первое, что бросается в глаза, — стилистика. Она очень классная и местами напоминает старый Disney: черно-белые цвета, выразительные персонажи и в целом такой мультяшный, немного сказочный визуальный стиль. При этом всё это хорошо сочетается с происходящим на экране и создаёт игре собственное лицо. С оружием тоже всё хорошо. Его достаточно много, есть из чего выбирать, и разные стволы ощущаются по-разному. Хотя лично я за всё прохождение в итоге постоянно использовал всего два оружия. Но это скорее уже мой выбор, чем недостаток самой игры. Разнообразия в целом хватает. Уровни, конечно, построены по классической формуле: коридор → враги → следующий коридор. Но этой формуле уже лет 30, поэтому ничего удивительного здесь нет — это всё-таки шутер. При этом разработчики старались делать сами уровни разными, добавлять новые ситуации, аркадные элементы и менять обстановку, поэтому однообразия я особо не почувствовал. Сюжет мне тоже понравился. Ничего невероятно сложного или глубокого здесь нет, но за происходящим было интересно следить. Идёшь по следу, расследуешь несколько дел, находишь новые зацепки, и постепенно начинает складываться общая картина. Для такой игры, на мой взгляд, этого вполне достаточно. История не мешает игровому процессу и при этом даёт мотивацию двигаться дальше. Отдельно хочу отметить управление. Я вообще практически не играю в шутеры, поэтому изначально думал, что на геймпаде будет неудобно. Но в итоге всё оказалось наоборот — играть было достаточно комфортно. И стрелять удобно, и с аркадными элементами никаких проблем не возникало. Для меня это большой плюс, учитывая, что проходил я именно на геймпаде. Само прохождение заняло у меня примерно четыре дня. Игра не успела надоесть, постоянно подкидывала что-то новое, а после финала не осталось ощущения, что я потратил время зря. В общем, 7/10. Не шедевр и явно не игра года, но вполне добротный и интересный проект. Особенно понравилось, что это новая самостоятельная игра со своей стилистикой, а не очередная попытка выехать на известной серии. Если вы обычно не играете в шутеры, как и я, то тоже вполне можете попробовать — по крайней мере, на геймпаде играть оказалось очень комфортно.
