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

I'm pretty good with mice: I can tell from feel the difference between the Logitech Pro X Superlight 2 Dex and the Logitech Pro X Superlight 2; I know roughly what most of the Razer product names mean; I think I can tell if a mouse is below 1,000 Hz polling. However, FindMyMouse and its MouseGuessr mode has proven I'm woefully underprepared to guess the mouse based solely on its silhouette.

The new mode, which is in beta, takes a database of over 100 gaming mice 3D-scanned from different angles, gives you a silhouette, and makes you guess the mouse. This can be anywhere from big names like Razer and Logitech to the more obscure WLMouse, G-Wolves, and Finalmouse.

You can even request a mouse with FindMyMouse's browse tab, so the guessing game could get larger with time. I'd personally love to see the likes of MonsterGecko's Pistol Mouse FPS (and that's only partly because it would make the game easier).

If you get a little time with it, and find yourself actually getting some mice right, it even has both a ranked and 'Nightmare' ranked mode—if you have an account. The standard ranked mode bases your score on an average of seven rounds of guessing, and the Nightmare mode calculates your average based on 15 rounds of guessing.

As a side note, it's also not an awful way to do some research on your next mouse, either. If you really like the Mchose G3 V2 Pro, you can compare its shape and size to other models to see if it's similar enough for you. Gaming mice in the FindMyMouse database also have scores based on reviews from users, which is pretty neat (even though the 5.8 given to the Logitech G Pro X Superlight is clearly wrong).

Still, if you find yourself with twenty minutes of spare time and fancy yourself a connoisseur of mice (the big cheese, if you will), give it a go. I certainly enjoyed learning how terrible I am at this guessing game.
