About the game

What you do in a play session

In Ratland, you take control of a rat clan and compete to make it the most populous and powerful in the sewer. To do this, you need to gather as much food as possible, whether by finding it or stealing it from your neighbors. Each player chooses their actions simultaneously, adding a layer of strategy and bluffing. Additionally, each clan has unique abilities that can change the course of the game. Get ready for plenty of trickery, laughter, and fierce competition as you try to ensure your clan's survival.
