Having a side scroller is not something I expected to see or play, but I am glad this game exists. It’s the type of experience we don’t see as much these days, and it’s a delight to play. It does take a bit to get used to the mechanics and how you prepare your battles. Yet once you do that, it’s even more interesting and rewarding than expected.

Although there is no deep story, your mission debriefs offer welcome insight into what is at stake, in this cyber war. At one point, the general will mention a city that used to be standing tall, now reduced to a battlefield, or a heavily fortified enemy base, with a tunnel underneath for you to traverse. Each location feels unique, the scenery changing with each battle. Although for the most part, these changes are purely cosmetic, they make the world in War Rats feel full and add to the atmosphere of each bloody battle. I really enjoyed how each battleground felt distinct from the last.
