First-person shooters? Yeah, there are, like, a million of them. Seriously, they all kinda start looking the same after a while. But then — bam! — there’s Mouse: P.I. For Hire. It’s got this art vibe going on that’s sorta Cuphead-ish but, you know, with way more bang-bang action and a ton of mice meeting their maker.
The whole game’s like stepping into an old-timey movie. Everything’s in black and white, and it’s not just slapped together either — it’s all hand-drawn! And oh man, the jazz music is something else. Picture this: a 1930s crime city, crawling with shady characters. Sounds intense, right? But wait — you see the hero running around, toting weapons you’d find at a clown show. What even?
You’ve got classic mobster favorites like Tommy guns mixed in with — get this — spinach cans and finger guns. Yup, you read that right. Each weapon has its own kooky, over-the-top animation. It’s like you’re in a cartoon where, honestly, every time someone bites the dust, it’s hilarious. Seriously, sign me up.
No clue when it’s dropping, but it’s gonna crash the scene on all the big systems, including — drumroll, please — Nintendo Switch 2. They just gave it a shoutout at Six One Indie, this jam-packed indie showcase with, like, 48 games from every corner of gaming land. Curious? Dive into the full lineup.
