10 itemsAbout the Game
About a Mouse is a next gen third person sandbox “strategy” stealth game.
The common house mouse is the lowest of the food chain. They fall prey to Owls, Hawks, Cats, Dogs, Snakes…. Humans.But not for this mouse. Born with a rare genetically anomaly, Super Intelligence.
Learning how to use the environment to its advantage, in rather quirky and dark humorous ways, this mouse dispatches the aggressive, rodent killing village folk using any trap or tool at its disposal.
About a Mouse sets itself apart from the third person market by using the shear cuteness of playing at a mouses level, with the comedic dark undertone of a stealthy assassin.
