RatScum

Beneath a derelict apartment on the edge of the city, a rat wakes up in isolation and unfamiliarity. Stumbling upon floors and pipes to survive while searching for a way back home, it finds everyone here in desperate need of escaping from something. RatScum is a narrative adventure about being lost, identity, and belonging. You play as a rat trying to return home: climb through vents and strange spaces, solve puzzles and avoid dangers, spy on tenants, befriend stranger rats, and uncover the stories whispered behind the walls. Set out into this crumbling yet whimsical world, where even in the filth and the forgotten, there is beauty. And something like peace. - Rodent Power - As a rat, you have to use your tiny rat brain to think outside the box. Slink through the shadows, outsmart the traps, and use your power to navigate through this murky place. - Make Allies - Every rat knows that surviving without the help of your own kind is never easy, especially when everyone sees you as an outsider. To find your way home, it might be wiser to be accepted by them. - Tense Encounters - Most tenants don’t enjoy surprise visits from furry strangers. If they spot you, they’ll panic. Or worse. Stay quiet, stay hidden, and prepare for a hasty retreat when things get loud. - A Strange Little Story - Curiosity leads the way, and nothing is quite as it seems. When the lights go out, be cautious of the strange things hidden beneath the charm, still waiting to be uncovered.
