What is Rat King?
Compete to dethrone or defend the tyrannical Rat King. You must either hide your identity as a Conspirator, sniff out schemes as a Loyalist, or execute suspicious players as the Rat King himself.
Sniff out ever-shifting roles
New role cards are dealt each round, meaning players get to experience multiple roles in each game.
Use Action cards to peek at cards in the offering or inspect other players’ hands.
The Turncoat card amps up the chaos even more. While you hold a Turncoat, you change roles — for better or worse.
Wrestle for power in the Offering
The Offering is where the fate of the Rat King is decided.
During a round, Conspirators will sneak Blades face-down into the Offering.
The Loyalists will block these Blades with Shields, and manipulate the cards to defend the king.
Compete over fast-paced rounds
Rat King is played over multiple rounds, each providing its own challenge as you navigate your new role.
Minimal player elimination means players are never left out for long.
Members of the winning faction receive a victory token at the end of the round. The first to four tokens wins.
