Our take on Cyber Rats
The game departs from conventional action design by making the player a vulnerable laboratory rat rather than a dominant combatant. Its changing death mazes replace a fixed route, while upgrades alter the kinds of rats available within the experiment.
What is Cyber Rats?
Cyber Rats is a dark action game about a rat trapped in an AI-controlled test facility.
The game places the rat in deadly mazes containing horrifying experiments, traps, cheese, and Cyborg Hunters. Maze layouts change through procedural generation, so each labyrinth differs. The goal is to complete maze objectives and find a way out while surviving the facility’s hazards. Rat upgrades add new colors and types, including zombie rats, cyborg rats, and mutants. The game also includes an objective to stop the facility’s AI and save other lab rats. Death is part of the experiment, with each failed attempt contributing to the game’s survival-focused structure.
