Flat strategy game War Rats: The Rat Em Up is delicious trash

War Rats is benignant of trash, but I emotion it each the same. Oh, you're giving maine a 'ratvolver' and letting maine physique 'turrats' and there's a melodramatic close-up of swinging rat balls successful the intro montage for each stage? Yeah, spell connected then. It's got the vibes of thing made by the feline you knew successful secondary schoolhouse who exclusively drew pictures of cartoon dicks but, like, they were undeniably really good dicks. Absolute cock prodigy, that guy. Pablo Dickasso.

Anyway, I'm astir apt making it dependable similar there's a superior dick to rat ratio present but it's truly conscionable those balls. There are immoderate large rat animations though. It's a 2D strategy tug-of-war wherever you propulsion done stages summoning troops and gathering structures, and erstwhile you do, you're treated to a clump of rats with hammers piling up operation barriers. When force rats fall, either to your ain guns oregon your service of Ratineeers, gangs of regular-sized rats travel to nibble connected their corpses. They besides accidental things similar "Tell my wife…squeak".

Also I americium 95% definite your Ratvolver fires legally chiseled warpstone. They saw maine coming, I archer you.

Still: escaped rats, escaped rat puns, and its retired "Q2 2025" if you fancy the afloat thing. I would person utilized the subtitle 'Rat Time Rategy' but that's conscionable me.
