›Story
Ratropolis combines roguelite, deck building, and tower defense with real time strategy gameplay. Lead your small rat outpost to safety and defend your rat citizens from predators and monstrous creatures. Build the largest 'Ratropolis!' and etch your name into rat history!
Choose from over 500 cards of economy, building, military, and skill types to execute your strategic command. All leaders begin their journey with a deck of 8 basic cards. Building an efficient deck is key for protecting your rats from waves of rat-thirsty enemies. Add, remove and upgrade your cards to create a deck worthy of a true leader!
Defending your rats in the city will be a challenge. Get aid from advisers with talents in finance, defense, or leadership. They will provide you with better options when chaos arises. When the city falls your campaign will end, but with every end a new beginning is born. Unlock new cards to expand your options and make each defense a new experience.
Now lead Ratropolis to victory and save your Ratizens from destruction!
