## Description
Based on the novel by James Herbert, The Rats is a game combining strategy
elements and a text adventure as you control various characters in the battle
to control and kill a huge swarm of rats overrunning London. If the rats
spread further than London into the rest of Britain then it is game over. You
start the game as Foskins looking at a map of London with white squares
flashing showing reported sightings of rats. Here you can see the report,
deploy forces or enable research with Howard.
You have various forces to deploy to infected areas like rat-killers, police,
firemen or the Army (a last resort) and these must be managed carefully as you
only have a limited amount. You have limited equipment that can be used as
well and these include offence equipment like gas, rifles and dogs as well as
defences like shields and suits. Certain equipment can only be used by certain
types of forces. As you deploy you can initiate research with Howard and this
includes origins, defence, offence and nature.
As you battle to save London with Foskins, occasionally the adventure part of
the game interrupts and you can take the role of major characters like Harris,
Howard and Foskins as well as minor characters from the book like Pauline
Blakely trying to save herself and her baby. The situation each character find
themselves in, is an encounter with the rats and their battle for survival.
The screen has text describing the situation and there are various options to
select like goto, take and attack and as this part is real-time you don’t have
long to make these decisions or face death with graphics of rats attacking the
screen.
Letting the rats spread from London, the major characters dieing or your
forces depleted means it’s game over and you receive your score. The keyboard
is used to control the game.
