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.
Explore a diverse city playground, from dark streets to classic film studios, opulent opera buildings, poisonous swamps and underground sewers. With a myriad of cases to solve and collectibles to find, Mouseburg is truly a detective’s delight!

Very fun game. Interesting premise. The black and white visuals are a little odd at first but you start to get used to them after a while. If you go in knowing what this game is you will enjoy it. Also I think people complaining about the difficulty of the end boss is a bit overblown. Once you understand what to do it isn't super difficult; still challenging and takes some skill, but not ridiculously so. Fans of old school shooters and cheesy puns (pun fully intended) will enjoy this game. One thing I can appreciate is that the developers listed to people's complaints about not being able to re-enter completed levels to find missed collectibles and fixed it with a patch.
art is cool. stupid game design

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,420 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
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.

A solid shooter that will give you enjoyable moment to moment gunplay along with a fun and engaging narrative along with interesting characters to keep you going. The rubberhose style animation looks great and the music fits it perfectly. Plenty of gaps, references, and jokes to keep things light and even the way enemies will die depending on what you use to finish them off adds to the cartoony feel. If you enjoy a boomer shooter along with something that has a unique look to it you should pick this one up. The devs put a lot of care into this and it shows.
