Rebuilt from the nest up for Xbox Series X|S, Ratshaker™ delivers a hilariously immersive experience that defies conventional gaming logic. This satirical horror adventure transforms the simple act of rodent manipulation into an unexpectedly profound journey through psychological terror and dark humor.

The Viral Sensation That Captivated Millions
Since its PC launch on October 31, 2024, Ratshaker™ has become an internet phenomenon, generating millions of views across YouTube and streaming platforms. Major content creators including Markiplier have showcased the game's bizarre charm, with viral clips spreading across social media platforms. The game's unique concept and darkly comedic gameplay have made it catnip for streamers worldwide, including top gaming personalities like GameGrumps, ManlyBadassHero, and countless others who have helped propel this indie horror sensation into the spotlight.
The central mechanic coupled with the short play time, unsettling story, and mysterious atmosphere makes it catnip for streamers, establishing Ratshaker™ as a must-play experience for horror gaming enthusiasts and content creators alike.
What Is Ratshaker™?
At its core, Ratshaker™ is a 2024 Horror video game where you shake a rat, squeeze it a bit, and then it starts talking, directing you to a house in the distance. Things get weirder from that point on. The central mechanic involves grabbing a wide-eyed, squealing cartoon rat and shaking it whenever prompted. The game never explains why this is happening, at least not in a straightforward way, and that's part of its charm, or horror. What begins as an absurd premise quickly evolves into something far more complex and unsettling. It's a game about shaking rats and tackles some incredibly deep and sensitive topics, exploring themes that range from psychological horror to profound existential questions. Players will find themselves drawn into a narrative that is simultaneously ridiculous and deeply disturbing.
Ratshaker is a Indie Psychological Horror game with Rats, and an informed jab at the ideas behind games like P.T. The game serves as both an Affectionate Parody of experimental surreal horror games while delivering genuine scares and unsettling moments.
