First Rat*
Rats on the old junkyard have long told the legend of the cheese moon, dreaming of reaching this endless treasure. When the young rats discover a comic about the first moon landing, they hatch a plan to build a rocket and conquer the cheese moon. Players must gather resources, build rocket parts, and train ratonauts while competing against other families to collect the most cheese and points. The game ends when a player launches their fourth rat or achieves their eighth scoring marker, with the winner being the one with the most points.
