Mouse Panic! 2 squeaks onto mobile

Not a game focussed around terrified point-and-clicking

Why on earth are people scared of mice? It doesn't make any sense. We confidently assert that more people have been killed by raw coal, laughing and cushions than by the little white-whiskered rodents.

In a more rational world, people would look at a title like Mouse Panic! 2 and say, "Okay, I get the '2' bit – it's a sequel plain enough. But what's to panic over a mouse? If they'd called it MRSA Panic! I'd have been on-board. Killer Man-Eating Shark Panic!, even."

Adding mice to puzzle games isn't the sort of thing that scares us, and as for the 24 levels, we can only say bring them on. Although we do worry a little about a super-spartan press release that nevertheless has room for a bullet point proclaiming 'Continue option'. What next? 'Uses some battery!'?

We'll let you know if there's anything to fear just as soon as we can find someone brave enough to review Mouse Panic! 2, which is due to roll out this month.
