You are a nomadic slugcat, both predator and prey in a broken ecosystem. Grab your spear and brave the industrial wastes, hunting enough food to survive, but be wary— other, bigger creatures have the same plan... and slugcats look delicious.

About
You are a slugcat. The world around you is full of danger, and you must face it – alone. Separated from your family in a devastating flood, you will need to find food and shelter between terrifying torrential downpours which threaten to drown all life. Climb through the ruins of an ancient civilization, evade the jaws of vicious predators, and discover new lands teeming with strange creatures and buried mysteries. Find your family before something makes a meal of you!
Inspired by the simplicity and aesthetics of 16-bit classics, this survival platformer requires clever decision-making, both to catch your own prey and to avoid the jaws of hungry predators. Each ravenous foe in your path will be cunning, vicious and always on the hunt – eager to sink their teeth into you, or even each other. As a small, soft slugcat you must rely on stealth and wit rather than force: learn the ecosystem and turn their strengths to your advantage. Maybe then you can survive… Rain World!

Rain World is a beautiful but brutal survival platformer that sends you out into a dangerous and uncaring world with a simple premise and a couple of basic tutorials. From there it's up to you to navigate a variety of gorgeous environments packed full of creatures that want little more than to make you their next lunch. The game has a well-earned reputation for being difficult and really doesn't pull any punches even in your first few moments. Almost anything can kill you in a matter of seconds and while fighting back is rarely the best option, sometimes running away is even harder. The intelligent ecosystem is often wise to your tricks and most creatures are both bigger and faster than you. Rain World toes the line between difficult and unfair, leaning into the latter more than a few times. For every intense chase that you survive by the skin of your teeth, there will be times where a predator is hiding just out of view of the camera that eats you before you could possibly react. While you have the tools and movement options to get out of [i]most[/i] situations intact, sometimes you just lose. Whether or not you can enjoy Rain World largely depends on your ability to pick yourself back up when you fall through no real fault of your own. But if you can overcome that difficulty Rain World offers a pretty unique experience. Carving out your own small path through a large and hostile region is oddly calming. You [i]will[/i] get better as you play. Learning the movement, revealing the map and figuring out the behaviours and quirks of each creature will help you live longer and move further. Experiment; if you find something new, pick it up. Throw it or eat it and see what happens. Knowledge is your greatest tool and because of that I would advise against spoiling too much of the game by watching guides or reading the wiki. I can definitely recommend Rain World with the caveat that it's not always an easy game to enjoy. More than a few times I quit for the day out of frustration, only to return the next day and keep pressing on. The pixel art views are beautiful, the music is funky (although it plays infrequently) and the world is packed with mysteries to unravel. Give it a try, if only to see what life is like at the bottom of the food chain.

谁懂雨砸到头上的那一刻突然找到雨眠室的救赎感
I have to say, this is one of the most compelling games ive ever played. Rain World has had me hooked for over a week and for some reason i found it incredibly hard to stop playing, ive held off on playing this game for so long due to people saying that it was too difficult, it would take a while to fully get into , or that i probably wouldnt find it interesting. i am more than glad that ive played and finished this game, the amount of emotion ive had while playing this game is something i havent had in almost 7-8 years from when i first finished Witcher 1. i dont want to give spoilers but this game was amazing from every creature, every challenge, every obstacle, and every death, this game was truly, truly amazing. ___SPOILER___ Real Heart Throbber To, Was Not Expecting To Get Emotional When I Got My Depth Ending, Whole Game Spent Trying Not To Die, Only to Wish For Death In The End, Truly Amazing.
