Ratqueen

RATQUEEN is a casual strategy game set in the twisted realm of Ratania, where a cabal of eldritch alchemists unleashed monstrous hybrids of humans and rodents known as Rat Girls. Led by their enigmatic Rat Queens, the creatures descended on the land, and the player's task is to capture them. The core loop is simple: build metal cages and poison cheese traps, catch Rat Girls, and sell them for money to fund more traps. Levels fall into three modes: Slay the Queen, where the player must kill one or more Rat Queens with poison cheese; Mass Extermination, which requires eliminating a set number of Rat Girls; and Build and Invade, which requires constructing a target number of cages. Rat Girls come in several types with distinct mechanics, and the game features animated characters, vertical level progression, and complex pathfinding. The current version is an initial release, with planned future updates including a visual novel, additional game modes, trap variety, Rat Girl customization, and a bestiary gallery.
