## What is Mouse in Cheese?

Amazing real 3D game for cats! "Mouse in Cheese" is next game by creator of legendary "Mouse for Cats"! Paw-taking addictive game for cats.

Because mice loves cheese your cat should keep them out :)
- Catch the mouse to increase score.
- Combo hit, catch all four mice in short time to increase game speed!

This game for cats is designed for advanced "Mouse for Cats" hunters who reaching score 100 in few seconds.
Let them watch, help and teach them how to catch the mouse, because even profi players needs more time to figure out what is going on in this new game. 

Mice speed will increase on every Combo Hit! Try to tap few rounds to increase speed if your cat says that it is too slow at start.

note:
this game for cats is not so simply for their imagination as basic 2D game, some of them preffers Mouse in Cheese instead of TV Show and still loving to play Mouse for Cats in 2D, others catching only outside the cheese like to be sure that they never miss the hit :) no more simple Laser point, games for cats with more in-game logic will make your cat smarter.

remember: 
- if your furry master say "no, i will not play now, i dont care, try it later" ... respect his/her personality
CAT is NOT ROBOT, do not expect anything ;)
- also do not let them play alone and not so often..., they are like childrens and game is bit addictive after while ;)

### 5/5 — My cat’s favourite game

*2024-01-21*

My cat Mickey is currently around 9 months old and I’ve downloaded so many games for him but he didn’t seemInterested  in any of them, I downloaded mouse in cheese and he played with so much excitement, pouncing on the screen loving it. Whenever I try to take it away he gets upset with me. Whenever I’m on my iPad drawing or doing something he comes and sits on it as a protest so I can put on his game. When he hears the sound of it he comes running as fast as ever, safe to say it’s a great game. I’ve tried mouse for cats but he seemed upset the mouse wasn’t disappearing haha. Thank you for making my cat happy when I’m too tired to play with him!🐁🐀🐈

### 5/5 — Nice!

*2024-01-15, version 0.1.6*

I was looking for this game and the only result was akinator. So i had to search up cat toy and scroll through all of them. This game is nostalgic so i had to get it again, but my cat doesn’t even care she walked away Lol!

### 5/5 — I saw this and idk why I downloaded it lol

*2023-02-28, version 0.1.6*

Help I have problems

### 5/5 — Great for tots, too.

*2023-01-02, version 0.1.6*

I haven’t tried this with our ancient cat yet, but our 18 month old grandson is having a great time with it. It’s better than Mouse for Cats; a real step up in terms of interactivity.

### 5/5 — 2nd Review - Highly Entertaining

*2022-06-01, version 0.1.6*

I left a review almost a month ago because my 6 month old kitten Skylar absolutely LOVES this little game! I have it both on my iPhone and iPad. I left my iPhone on my bed this evening with no Apps or Games engaged. I came back a few minutes later and my jaw fell to the floor! I don’t know now she did it, but she somehow turned this game ON all by herself! What puzzles me is, she also hit the “Start” button and was  playing this game when I re-entered my bedroom. She had already scored 16 points in the short time I was gone! My concern is her purchasing apps on the App Store or whatever else her little fury paws touch. So funny!!

### 5/5 — Mouse in Cheese!

*2021-04-14, version 0.1.6*

My green cheek conure Kami loves this game so much! 
I literally have to cut her off after awhile so I can use the iPad.
I'll share a clip with you on Twitter.

### 4/5 — Please Get Rid of Ads

*2021-01-03, version 0.1.6*

Thank you for contacting me.  The game is really fun and entertaining for both my cats and myself!  The graphics and sounds are great!  

I also have Mouse for Cats, and I paid to unlock all features.  There are no ads on Mouse for Cats.  I realize you depend on ads for revenue for Mouse in Cheese, but there should be an option to pay to remove ads.  I hope, that if a person accidentally hits the ad, that it is a safe site.  In this day in age, I feel we do not to be bombarded with ads ALL on every single app, games, movies...etc.
