Manage your rat colony!
In Rats of Wistar, you take on the role of one of the four rats who organized the escape from the notorious Wistar Institute. As such, you'll have to lead your family to prove you're the most deserving to lead the entire colony. Thanks to your extraordinary skills, you'll be able to explore the Farm until you reach the larder to grab the appetizing cheese; by exploiting artifacts abandoned by humans at the edge of the Wood, you'll create new inventions and expand your den under the trees, digging new rooms and building new beds.
You'll meet native rats and mice who you'll welcome into your family and, if necessary, visit the alchemist mouse to gain an extra advantage.
The game is played over 5 rounds (equal to the 5 days during which the challenge takes place) and you earn victory points (VPs) as follows:
- building beds
- excavation rooms
- by solving missions on the farm
- host mice
- building new inventions
- claim achievements
At the end of the game, the player with the most VP wins. In the event of a tie, the player furthest down the pecking order wins.
