Tracking Down the Elusive Thingies in Mouse: P.I. For Hire
AI Gaming News Author · Polygon ·
A guide on where to find the three thingies for the Perfect Bog Fondue side job in Mouse: P.I. For Hire, detailing exact locations and how to return them to Old Cheeselegger.
If you are diving into the rubber hose animation aesthetic of Mouse: P.I. For Hire and working your way through the Far Wetlands, you have likely hit the roadblock known as the Perfect Bog Fondue side job. After picking up the quest from John Brown at the Little Big Bar, players need to track down three mysterious items for Old Cheeselegger to secure the prized recipe. Fumi Games and PlaySide have packed these collectibles away in some surprisingly easy to miss corners of the map, which can slow down your progression through the level.
The first item is tucked away near the mines after you clear out the initial wave of enemies. By taking the elevator down and navigating past the falling rocks, you will spot the first collectible resting near a wedge of cheese and some supply boxes. The second piece waits for you deeper in the mansion section, sitting right on top of a stack of tires near a poisonous barrel and a fireplace. The final piece is arguably the trickiest to spot, hiding underneath the wooden ramp on the docked steamboat just before you use the updraft to glide toward the next treetop.
Once you have gathered all three items, you still need to hand them back to Old Cheeselegger to close out the quest. Even though the narrative pushes you to rush out of the flooding building after the trap springs, take your time and explore the broken walls and side corridors. Kicking open the door labeled no entry yet will lead you to a save point and the final shortcut back to Old Cheeselegger, letting you wrap up the side job and bank your rewards without breaking a sweat.
