Hi Tom you said the player can move 2 rats up to 3 spaces. But for the sake of clarity the complete rule is that you can move ANY NUMBER (2, 3 or 4) of your rats up to 3 spaces. Best Gabriele

I really like that cover and the theme. It feels like if this were an animated movie, I would've gone crazy for it as a kid.

It’s going on my list! Thanks Vasel family for another excellent review!

"I am not a rat" is exactly what a rat would say

Thanks for sharing a review for this game! My family is loving it. I even get my 4-year-old to play with me as the solo mode cards. It is really approachable with good tactical and strategical play.

House rats are pretty clean and intelligent animals :)

Bought it few months ago just based on a theme. Played it with 5 and really enjoyed it ! One of my family favorite games for sure ! Highly recommend!

We played this at UKGE and brought it straight away, its a lot of fun

More reviews with Vasel Family! This was very good 🙂

The surprise so far of 2022. Solo mode is very solid as well. I also added the bot to our 2 player games and worked very well. I hope it gets nominated for the Kennerspiel next week.

Just ordered this. Looks like a fun family game that has some light but interesting decisions

Great review! It looks like a really cool game!

I love this game. Really good at solo all th way through to 5 players. So many point you can gain in lots of different ways.

Hmmm! So what age group does this work for? Starting at…? I have 5 and 7 year old girls.

Come'on Girls. Ratstronaut....thats funny!!!! I'm buying this just to say Ratstronaut over and over again to my girls. Love the review. Thanks, Tom, Ruby and Violet.

I played it two times now. Once Solo and once two players. And I really really like it so far. The theme and artstyle is cute. The mechanism is interesting And the game plays fast. Now I want a sequel with the rockets of the rats. On the way to the moon😅

You ask what sort of person wins First Rat? I would say only a complete rat can do so! 🤣 Great review! I was intending to order this game at the end of the month anyway, but you've only confirmed this is a good idea. One question which you didn't address: so is this a space race, or a rat race? 🤔

YUp, this game is excellent and very different!

Just played this last friday. A great game, horrible cover but the theme is superbly implemented, and really smooth play even with 5 players. Recommendation!

This seems very reminiscent of Martin Wallace's Toledo...

Fun fact: rats have been to space many times

“It doesn’t matter if you win by 2 points or 200, winning is winning!” -Dominic Toretto on family game night The game looks really fun though

If a rat can become a world famous chef in New York, it can get to space.

Rats are amazing pets! Oh and this game is great too!

Poor rats xs

A rat will definitely say they are not a rat...

So it is fun for gamers to?

I like how they anthropomorphized the cockroaches so they wouldn’t look so gross. 🪳🤮
