About the game

A Rat’s Quest: The Way Back Home is Romeo and Juliet with a rat and a mouse. Mat, the Hero of the game is trying to find a way to his beloved Nat, a cute mouse kept as a pet. Together, they plan to escape to the outside. But his journey is full of dangers, one is – of course – “The Claw” …

In the role of a rat, you will encounter a giant’s world from the perspective of a very small hero. For you and me, it’s just opening a door. For a rat, it’s an adventure! Play hide and squeak with fearsome creatures and slash them with your shiny rivet or ‘fend them off with your sturdy button!
