Rats are rodents found in We Happy Few. They are one of the few animals left in Wellington Wells after the war and can be found pretty much everywhere in the Garden District.
Appearance[]
Rats, as seen in game, are small, brown/dark grey, furry rodents with long tails and snouts. Similar to that of the common Brown Rat.
Gameplay[]
Rats can be killed or knocked out using most weapons, or fists, searching their bodies will always yield one raw meat.
Events of We Happy Few[]
Rats can be seen throughout the game. During the prologue, the staff visisons a dead rat to be a piñata because of their heavy use of Joy. Only Arthur sees the piñata for what it really is, because he refused to take his Joy.
Throughout the rest of the game, rats can be seen scurrying around the world, especially in cellars and other underground or abandoned areas. Cap'n Strawbeard is found to be in possession of a rat that has been painted on to resemble a parrot.
During the Lightbearer DLC, Virgil Dainty takes the form of a rat.
Trivia[]
- The model for the rat in the main game and the DLC are different.
- For whatever reason, there is a bucket of dead rats in Byng's safe house.
- Killing a Rat counts as a kill in the stats page, just the same as killing a person would.
- This is likely because Rats count as an entity, just like the human NPCs.
- According to Reg Cutty, even when Rats are the animals mostly seen in Wellington Wells, they're about to completely disappear any time soon.
