this game, regrettably, has rats. somehow, more cruel than a mid 90's dungeon crawler, V Rising's rats are functionally, portable blood bags. dont ask what you do with them in the blood press... ugh.

following in the wake of Undertale, Atlyss is another title in the genre of "games with a giant sexy furry MILF", but that's here nor there. there's playable rats. they make great melee tanks.

Dusk's rats all hang out in a secret level called "the ratacombs". they have a giant rat who makes all of the rules named "One As Many".

there's two whole secret rodents in this puppy. unfortunately, they're right-wing pundits, and potentially, not even rats.

ratopia's name might lead you to assume that it embodies utopian ideals but when you can tax your ratizens to the point that they cant buy the materials they need to work, well... despite all my rage

a swarm is scattered across the Sword Coast. they have plenty to say to the party, provided a "Speak With Animals" spell. not the typical medieval fantasy stock either. most are friendly!

the "flying rats" collectible refers to pigeons, not rats. no rats to be found in faux new york. bizarre. strange. wrong.

"Kill the rat god" is fallout 2's premiere quest (and the only one of any concern to this page). in it, the chosen one must oust Keeng Ra'at and his rat army from caves beneath Klamath

one of the first quests given to your ranger squad sees them clearing a vegetable garden of any "vermin", including the lowly rad-rat.

your sim can pick up a pet rat of their own for the low low price of $9.99 US. sometimes they'll escape, hop on a bus, and send a postcard back home.
