One must consider what it means to be a rat before they must consider what it means to be human. This game expertly shows us the difference between rat and man. One is baby, the other is hyper-realistic. This game is an effective allegory for the military industrial complex and it's many, MANY immoral actions taken against RAT KIND such as the invention of... guns. You must find the true juxtaposition between rat and man, gun and life, quality versus quantity. My friends and I played this game and became vegan. Thank you Thebigrat.

Rat Royal is a really fun asymmetrical multiplayer idea, and I liked how different the two sides feel from the moment a match begins. I can either play as a rat trying to cause chaos or become the exterminator hunting them down. That simple setup creates a nice change in perspective because one side is focused on sneaking and creating trouble while the other is trying to control the situation. Playing as a rat is my favorite part. I can use the environment to move around, slip through mouse holes and try to stay out of sight while causing problems for the exterminator. I liked the feeling of being small and vulnerable because it makes even simple movement feel important. Finding cheese to recover health also gives me another reason to search the map instead of constantly running away. The exterminator side plays completely differently. I have to search the environment, identify where the rats are hiding and use traps and other tools to deal with them. I enjoyed the cat and mouse feeling because the two sides are constantly reacting to each other. The destructible electrical elements also give the exterminator more opportunities to interfere with the rats' plans. The maps are des…

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
