There’s a website to competitively guess gaming mouse shapes, and it’s a better use of my time than doomscrolling

FindMyMouse has launched MouseGuessr, a new beta mode that challenges gaming enthusiasts to identify mice based solely on their silhouettes. The game features an extensive database of over 100 gaming mice that have been carefully 3D-scanned from multiple angles, presenting users with various perspectives to make their guesses. The tool includes products from major manufacturers like Razer and Logitech, as well as smaller gaming peripheral brands, creating a diverse selection of mice to identify.

The author, who considers themselves quite knowledgeable about gaming mice and can distinguish between similar models and even detect subtle polling rate differences, found the silhouette-guessing challenge surprisingly difficult. This proves that recognizing mice without visible branding presents a genuine test of expertise, even for enthusiasts. MouseGuessr offers gaming enthusiasts an engaging and productive alternative to typical internet browsing, combining competitive gameplay with specialized peripheral knowledge in a way that feels more rewarding than doomscrolling through social media.
