📖 About This Game
The Great Rat Wars is an all-vs-one tactical skirmish game in which one player controls an army of mutated Rats trying to take over New York City. The rest of the players must work together as small squads of Human characters to defend the city and push their Rat overlords back to where they came from.
The Rat player will have to make difficult decisions on where to send their soldiers and which Humans to target. They will have a lot of power at their finger tips, but how they use it will be the difference between victory and defeat.
The Human players will be taking simultaneous turns, interweaving their skills and their maneuvers to create strong combos and deal out massive damage. Their path to victory is paved with cooperation - the Humans are strongest while working together.
