Laurence is an avid writer, gamer, and traveller with several years of journalistic writing experience under his belt. Having helped create a student-focused magazine at university, he is keen to reach the gaming community with his guides and game reviews.

Whether it's trudging through the world of Elden Ring, or grinding out raids in Old School Runescape, Laurence is always up for a challenge. However, in real life, his current challenge is learning how to speak Spanish and cooking authentic Mexican cuisine.

In Mouse P.I For Hire, Jack is the top detective, but he's as ruthless as they come! However, now's not the time for violence. It’s time to look smart and put on your award-winning smile, because you’re going undercover on a fancy river cruise! Just watch your step, because this water ain’t for swimmin’, pal!

Stilton needs a man on the inside, and in this world of monochrome mayhem, you’re the only one fit for the job. This side quest takes place entirely on a boat, which can be a bit confusing at first. Before starting, it’s worth circling the boat a few times to get your bearings.

MOUSE: P.I. For Hire Review

Gritty noir detectives and wacky cartoon hi-jinks make a remarkably great pair in this fast-paced FPS.

Once you know your way around, it’s time to figure out what the Big Mouse Party is up to. All these shady fellas grouped together on a big barge… can’t be anything good, right? Time to wrap up this case, Mouse P.I. style!

How to Start Mouseburg Confidential Side Job

Once you start the mission, make your way through the engine room and up to the main deck of the cruise ship. Go left past the bouncer and up the stairs. Turn back on yourself until you reach the path blocked by three mice.

Go north from here and head right into Cabin VI. Here you’ll find a small room with a ventilation duct above some suitcases. Head on through into the Cigar Lounge, and go up the main staircase.

Save with the typewriter and then head right down the stairs. Here you’ll meet an Undercover Agent standing next to a table. Speak with him, and you’ll begin the side job.

You should complete this quest before showing your card to the bouncer. If you get too far in the main quest, this side job will become uncompletable.

As soon as you accept the job, start heading south and go up the stairs that lead to the Concert Hall.

Head inside the hall and look to your left. There will be three mice standing in the corner, with a large magnifying glass next to them. Head towards them and then take a picture. You’ll obtain the BMP Top Brass quest item.

Once you have the evidence, head back to the Undercover Agent and hand over the picture to complete the side job.

Rewards

For completing this side job, you’ll receive the following rewards:

2x coins

2 coins! Shocking, I know. You’re not exactly making a killing snapping photos, but it’s honest work. Luckily for you, this side job doesn’t take much time, so you’re not exactly being cheated too much!

You can, of course, choose to reject this task and receive nothing, but it makes more sense to get this done for the side job achievements, if that’s something you care about!

Once you’ve taken care of this quest, be sure to complete the Alpha and Omega Quest given by the BMP mouse in the Cigar Lounge.
