New Mice

Special Area Notes

• In Zugzwang’s Tower mice are themed like chess pieces. There are two sides, the Technic and Mystic.
• In here you need to catch these chess like mice in a particular order as below:

8 Pawns -> 2 Knights -> 2 Bishops -> 2 Rooks -> 1 Queen -> 1 King

Note: The mice from before can still be attracted, let say you are at catching the Queen, the Rooks, Bishops, Knights, and Pawns can still be attracted. However you need to catch 8 Pawns before the Knights can be attracted and so on. You will be kicked back to Seasonal Garden after you have caught the King/Chess Master!

• Now let’s see how is our Tower Amplifier is being used here! The Tower Amplifier is a multiplier for your power and as it drops below 100% your luck will be affected negatively. Once your amplifier reaches 0% you will be kicked back to Seasonal Garden. The following table shows the effect of catching/fail to attract mice in this area on the amplifier meter.

* Only applies if you catch it with Checkmate Cheese

** Can substitle with Snake Jade Base

Main Goals

• Catch the Technic King and he will drop Technic Cheese Mould, Torn Technic Page, and Droid Jetpack. 
• Catch the Mystic King and he will drop Mystic Curd, Mystic Crystal, and Torn Mystic Page. 
• After collecting the Droid Jetpack and Mystic Crystal, you can craft the following two traps to help you repeat this area to collect more materials to craft the powerful base Spellbook Base. However if you are not having huge trouble with Zugzwang’s Tower (ZT) run, I don’t recommend getting these two traps. As they are expensive and not worth the gold, because they are only effective in ZT. Follow the below recipes to trap them:
  • Obvious Ambush Trap (Effective for Technic mice and reduce effectiveness against Mystic)

* From Seasonal Garden general store for 1,100,000 gold

** From the Bazaar general store for 7,750 gold

• Blackstone Pass Trap (Effective for Mystic mice and reduce effectiveness against Technic)

* From Seasonal Garden general store for 1,100,000 gold

** Loot drop from the Catacombs (Better using Ancient cheese to collect)

• Now you can equip these two traps to catch the Mystic and Technic Kings, and it will be much easier because you will have less chance of catching the other team’s mice. This way you can preserve your amplifier. For your next few runs you should start with Pawn Pincher Traps then equip one of these two traps to catch the kings. *(If you didn’t buy them, then use your setup from your first run and repeat)
• Your next goal is to go back and boost up your amplifier and re-run the Zugzwang’s Tower over and over again until you have collected enough of the following materials:
  • 3 Torn Mystic Pages from the Mystic King
  • 3 Torn Technic Pages from the Technic King
• After you have collected 3 of each pages, you are ready to craft the next cheese to catch the Chess Master mouse. The special cheese is called the Checkmate cheese, craft them using the following recipe:
  • 3 Checkmate Cheese

• 9 Checkmate Cheese

• To catch the Chess Master, you need to catch the King with Checkmate cheese. It is recommended that you craft enough supply of checkmate cheese before attempting to catch the Chess Master.
• The Chess Master will drop the Master Bindings and may drop Zugzwang’s Left Sock. (The Sock is merely a collective item, there is no use for it)
• Now that you have 3 of each pages and 1 Master Bindings, you can now craft the next most powerful base, Spellbook Base using the following recipe:

* From the Seasonal Garden general store for 936,000 gold

** From the Training Grounds general store

Note: Required 67,750,000 points to craft

• While you are repeating the tower, you should had obtained a Crystal Library Card from mice in this area. It is most commonly dropped by the Rooks or the Queens, though Knights and Bishops could also drop it too. After obtaining this card you will have access to Crystal Library.
• Now you can move to next area

Advance to Stage 25 – Crystal Library
