The pride a Ratty feels when feeding a baby to its fullest is gratifying, however the grief experienced when a baby Ratty perishes can be very upsetting.

Set in a dystopian and post-nuclear environment where mutant felines known as the Catty dominate society, Ratty Catty shares the lesson of what chaos may ensue when one societal class rules over another. If anyone ever tells you that video games are not art forms, please confront them with this masterpiece The game-play, the customization, the artificial intelligence, the innovative multiplayer experience, and - perhaps most importantly - the story - it's all there.
