Rival rat families scavenge a junkyard to build the best rocket and reach the legendary cheese moon.

Gameplay

Score the most points by moving your rats along the junkyard paths to gather resources, buy gear, and build rocket sections. You’re constantly weighing efficient routes against crowded spaces, fees to other rats, and when to risk a theft for a big swing.
