When you first turn your mousie on, its Algorithm is in
age 1 and it will sing “Happy Birthday”.
Whenever your mousie gets another stage older, it also
sings "Happy Birthday".
The more time you spend playing and having fun with
it, the faster the development will happen.
You can tell how old your mousie is by counting the
number of times its nose blinks when you turn it on.
In the mousie’s 1st stages of development, it gets older
quickly. As the mousie develops it takes more time to
age so be patient and play with it as much as possible.

M a i n Fe a t u r e s
Mousies™ are cute little rodent robots with artificial
intelligence. They interact with you and react differently
to changing environments as well as displaying different
types of behavior and emotions. They can turn left and
right, avoid obstacles, play games, and sing and dance!
Fred is the male mousie and Didi is the female. See them
progress through six stages of development!
Playing with the Mousies™ can be enhanced by using
the Internet. You can download food, medicine, games
and songs for extra fun.
Through care and nurturing, Fred and Didi will grow up
to the age of six using their growth algorithm. In age 1,
their movement looks somewhat unnatural, but as they
get older, their motions develop along with their personality.
