About A Rat's Quest - The Way Back Home | Season 1

About this game

Meet Mat, a young rat whose simple life in an abandoned wine cellar with his best friend, Toby, is turned upside down when he falls head over tail in love with Nat, a clever house mouse who is kept as a pet by one of the Giants on the upper floors of the building.

MEET MAT

Bitten by the love bug, Mat sets out on a perilous journey to become a Scavenger, just so he can sneak up and secretly visit his beloved. Despite coming from different worlds, their dream is to start a new life outside the rat commune. However, the cellar holds secrets. Yet, Mat's reckless confidence and the community's hidden, unsettling truths put their lives in great danger.

A TALE OF LOVE

Help Mat navigate the maze of hidden dangers and witness the lengths he is willing to go to for love.
