How Long To Beat Mouse: PI For Hire
Mouse: P.I. for Hire takes 7 to 9 hours to finish, if players rush through the story. However, doing so will result in missing much of the content and exploration.
In case of a standard playthrough, where players take on side jobs, explore the hub, and grab collectibles, they will need between 10 and 15 hours to complete the game. Clues, newspapers, and cards are distributed across missions, rewarding thorough exploration.
For completionists, 25 hours of playtime is required to gather all achievements, side missions, and collectibles. Most of the playtime goes towards finding the baseball card matches and hidden items.
One thing to remember is that there is no mission replay. That means when players move forward, remember to keep manual saves, or the past content is gone for good!
