This special expansion offers a brand-new scenario for those who already enjoy the base game and want another quick challenge. Originally distributed as a freebie at events and for early adopters, this bonus mission celebrates the launch of Oltréé. If you grabbed the game right away or got lucky at a convention like SPIEL 21, you might already have this gem. For those who missed out, it also appeared in the Dice Tower 2022 Kickstarter Pack A. In Rats, Rats, Rats, you and your friends dive into a new story where cooperation is key to overcoming the obstacles that arise. As is common in narrative-driven games, be prepared to deal with unexpected events and make decisions that will shape the fate of your adventure. Language dependency is something to consider, as the text is extensive and crucial for following the plot. Therefore, having a good grasp of English or a reliable translation is essential to fully enjoy this experience. Despite being an expansion, it adds that extra flavor of challenge and immersion that Oltréé fans love, without overly extending the game session. It's a great addition for anyone looking for a quick dose of cooperative medieval fantasy with a dash of storytelling. ## FAQ ### Do I need the base game Oltréé to play this expansion?
