Review: Mouse: P.I. For Hire (Switch 2) – A Bold, Risk-Taking FPS, And A Fine Achievement

In Mouseburg, every mouse has something to hide.

With Mouse: P.I. for Hire, Iโ€™ve got very little to complain about, so for the sake of balance, first Iโ€™ll gently shine a light on its near-absurd mishmash of influences.
