Story

Set in 1777 Ireland, Curse of the Sea Rats tells the story of Douglas, Buffalo, Akane, and Bussa - a group of prisoners who have been transformed into rats by a pirate witch, Flora Burn. Eager to regain their human bodies, our four unlikely heroes embark on a journey to hunt down the evil witch and defeat her diabolic crew.

Features

SENSATIONAL VISUAL DESIGN

SENSATIONAL VISUAL DESIGN

The characters are brought to life thanks to a brilliantly vibrant hand-animated adventure that draws inspiration from the likes of Disney and Don Bluth and reminiscent of the golden age of 2D platforming action. The game captures the charms of hand-drawn animation and takes the players back to the simple joys of watching Saturday morning cartoons. The art style feels more immersive and distinct due to the enhanced 3D environments.

ADVENTURE AND EXPLORATION

You'll need more than just your swashbuckling skills to forge your path to freedom in this labyrinthine world filled with secret locations to discover and puzzles to solve. Shipwrecked on the coast of Ireland in the 18th Century, each area feels completely different to traverse and explore. The different locations in the vast map can be reached via multiple paths through the interweaving world in a main quest of over 12 hours of gameplay!
