MOUSE: P.I. For Hire: Indie Shooter Goes Microtransaction-Free

Exciting news for fans of vintage aesthetics and noir storytelling—Fumi Games and PlaySide Studio have unveiled more details about their upcoming game, *MOUSE: P.I. For Hire*. This first-person shooter, set against the backdrop of the 1930s, immerses players in a world of jazz, mystery, and dynamic events as they step into the shoes of private detective Jack Pepper. What sets *MOUSE: P.I. For Hire* apart is its unique visual style, drawing inspiration from the iconic rubber hose animations of the 1930s, offering a nostalgic trip back to the golden age of cartoons.

In a bold move, the developers have announced on their official X social media page that *MOUSE: P.I. For Hire* will not feature any microtransactions. This decision underscores their commitment to delivering a pure, uninterrupted single-player experience filled with noir atmosphere and explosive combat scenes. The absence of microtransactions in a single-player indie shooter is noteworthy and highlights the developers' dedication to crafting a game that stands out for its quality and integrity.

As Jack Pepper, players will navigate a noir city teeming with mobs, gangs, and other nefarious characters. Armed with an array of weapons, power-ups, and explosives, your mission is to thwart corrupt politicians and restore justice to a city brimming with chaos and corruption. The game injects humor into the classic first-person shooter genre with its whimsical weaponry, unique health display, and cartoon-like enemies, creating a playful yet gritty experience.

While *MOUSE: P.I. For Hire* does not have a specific release date yet, fans can look forward to diving into this captivating world in 2025. Get ready to embark on a thrilling quest for justice in a visually stunning and humorously engaging noir universe.
