'' Rats stylized as 'Rats!' is a 1996 Time Management PC Game for Windows written by Sean O'Connor. The objective of the game is to eliminate all rats in each level presented to the player.

Gameplay
The player is presented with a top down view of a maze in which Rats are born and roam around through narrow lanes. The rats are born with no apparent sex but after a certain amount of time mature to be either a male or a female. After maturity, if a male rat crosses path with a female rat, one or more offspring rats are born again,and this continues until they overrun the maze and the player loses. The overrun progress is displayed by a bar graph to the right of the screen.

The objective of the player is to eliminate every rat on the screen before their population grows beyond a considerable size. This can be done by using certain objects presented to the player at random. This includes bombs, radioactive waste, gas, poison, plague rats, blocks and gender changing chemicals to avoid a potential mating.
