The year is 1347 and a catastrophe is about to happen. The Black Death is approaching, and over the next few years much of the population of Europe and North Africa will be killed by the plague. In Rattus, players settle in different parts of Europe and North Africa as the plague spreads throughout these regions. The players are helped by the various professions of the Middle Ages. Some of them, such as peasants and bakers, help players to increase their population. Others, such as monks and nuns, use their wisdom and faith to avoid the plague, while wars waged by knights and soldiers spread the plague to new regions. However, the plague makes no distinction. When the rats arrive, no one can feel safe. Finally, the plague withdraws and the game ends. Only then will it become clear who has managed to keep their population alive - and win the game!
