His Starcraft 2 videos back in the day were what showed me how awesome PC gaming was and is what got me into PC Gaming in general. I was growing bored with the typical games offered on console and his starcraft 2 videos in particular showed me how much more complex and interesting games could be on PC.
There's a lot of comments saying "This game isn't bad, you just don't know how to play it." In any other game, this could have been true. However, this game REALLY IS that unpredictable. You can follow the tutorials to a pixel-perfect degree and still lose.
I've met Bad rats developers in a cs:go match. Sadly they said they got 50k euros from it and they are working on Bad rats 2 i told them as a joke that they should put some dogs in the game. They replied with "dogs have way more polygons than rats and so they are more expensive to make." Also those 2 guys were assholes during the game. It is sad that they earn money and laugh at naive consumers.
This is a very old comment, but either way I will point out that this is a lie. I know this because I was given this game as a joke this year, so I have the unfortunate knowledge that there are *already dogs in bad rats.*
Following the Logic that the ball can fall into the 3rd Dimension, Couldn't the Cat simply walk out of that area it's standing in? Yet another fault in this Horrible Game.
Don't mind me - just passing through after an article mentioned this game and brought me down nostalgia lane. Has it really been over 2 years already? Thanks for the memories TB, and Godspeed, wherever the FOV slider beyond has taken you.
Once in a lifetime, there comes a game that changes not only the face of gaming, but the very soul of all who are blessed enough to experience it. Bad Rats: the Rats' Revenge is precisely such a game. While other similar games were met with lukewarm reception and little to no fanfare, Bad Rats: the Rats' Revenge propels the genre into legendary status, potentially revolutionizing the art of video games in general, with its gripping and emotionally-charged story. There are few games that I will admit were able to make me cry, but Bad Rats: the Rats' Revenge was indeed such a game, as it left me deeply touched and emotionally drained. Not only that but the perfect gameplay is every bit as fast and visceral as it is thoughtful and strategic. To play this game is to achieve nirvana. I can not recommend this game highly enough. Play it and experience spiritual rebirth. - Хеллос
I agree. Before Bad Rats, my life was a meaningless speck upon the turbulent seas of existence. I was unable to comprehend my purpose in the infinity of time. Now, I am at peace.
even just the intro, just the first 5ish seconds, is enough to inspire a bittersweet note of nostalgia. Rest well, mate. Just wish we coulda had more time with you.
I can only express my absolute love for this phenomenome of a game sweeping the nation with one word. Incredible. Bad Rats The Rats Revenge is a game that excells in being a ground breaking title, and it is now in my humble opinion game of the year. "Why is this game so amazing?" I hear you loyal Bad Rats fans screaming at me. Well to express my everlasting love for Bad Rats lets start with the gameplay. Bad rats has an amazing physics engine that puts Valve to shame. I have never had a single moment where this game felt off in the physics department. Now you might be asking "Whats the goal of Bad Rats?" Well let me explain very breifly. A group of devilish and downright sexy rats are sick and tired of cats, so the rats need your help to kill the cats by solving deep intricate puzzles. Speaking of these puzzles, Bad Rats The Rats Revenge manages to out number Portal and even Portal 2 in the puzzle aspect of the gameplay. Another more personal reason I love Bad Rats is the touching and emotional plot of this ground breaking title. The story I have previously mentioned, and is even deeper and heart wrenching then games such as Final Fantasy VII, Shadow Of The Colossus, and the entire Metal Gear Solid series COMBINED. Each rat character in this game has their own personal depressing backstory, that explains alot about their personality. I wish I could say more, but I would spoil such an incrediable experience for you. In conclusion, Bad Rats The Rats Revenge is my personal favorite game, and hands down game of the year. This game not only changed my outlook on gaming today, but also changed my outlook on life itself.
I'm surprised there aren't more people talking about how fucking disgusting the concept of this game is. This is the kind of thing a serial killer would get off on.
To be fair, using the bulldozer to push the ball and using the balloon with a bat rat is kind of the obvious thing. I have the game myself and I can't tell if it's just awful or if I make myself fuck up badly just to have a laugh at the physics.
Whenever the question is raised "Can video games be art? Can they rouse the soul, inspire us to a higher purpose?" Bad rats answers with a resounding, glorious "Yes!" - metacritic user AuburnDusk
It literally killed me to try and watch him solve the second level.. Tractor rat pushes ball to the left, batter rat floating next to where you have to hit the ball. done.
A few years ago in the town of Middlebury Oregon, there was a man named Joseph Woodstock. He liked to be called Joey. He was a nice fellow, with a few close friends. The local ladies who saw him sometimes bowling at the local Bowl-o-Rama Bowling Alley said he was pleasant on the eyes. He was a nice guy to be around, and a very pleasant conversationalist. He knew all the right things to say, and never seemed to be on anyone's bad side. He never had a run in the with local police, and was very straight and narrow. He owned an auto parts store in town. the shop being one of only 2 auto places in town was profitable, leaving Joey to skip the 9 to 5 grind, and have plenty of free time to pursue more leisurly activities. Joey was American as apple pie, and loving life to the fullest. He did have a girlfriend, whom he had even asked to marry him recently. She gladly accepted. Joey's life seemed set. Joey was a good wholesome average man, with lots to live for. Which is why none of the rest of this makes sense... On the night of September 14th, 2012, Joey was last seen sitting outside of his 2 story home, on his steps. A neighbor recalls seeing Joey through her window across the street. Joey appeared to be shaking, wearing only what appeared to be a towel, shorts (possibly boxers), and no shoes on. He looked a mess. The neighbor went downstairs, and when she went out of her door to see if Joey was okay, he was gone. She went to his front door and rang the doorbell, but there was no answer. 2 days later, Joey's body was found outside of town washed up in a riverbed. Police say there was no signs of foul play, and it appeared that he had commited suicide by jumping off a bridge located further upstream, breaking his neck on impact. None of this made sense. This man, whom was recently engaged and not in any trouble financially or otherwise, took his own life? This made no sense at all. Police searched his home and found no evidence of foul play. When they searched his den, the lights were flickering off and on, with a faint humming coming from a computer fan. The computer had been left on. Maybe there were clues here? One officer walked up to the computer desk, and touched the mouse enough to get the computer out of sleep mode. what he saw haunted him. A few seconds later, the computer monitor sparked, and then it shut off. It had died. As well as the computer with it. Haunted by what he had seen, officer Henry King mentioned none of this to other officers, and left what he had seen on the screen out of his report. 4 days later, Henry King was found dead in his apartment. He had hung himself the night before. On his computer monitor it flickered off and on. Bad Rats: The Rat's Revenge. Scribbled on a notepad also on his desk, in almost illegible hand writing was a small message: "Abandon all hope ye who enter here"
Why does everyone attack him about the puzzles when he has acknowledged frequently that he is terrible at puzzles and or puzzle games so I don't understand why people act like he thinks he's the best.
As the administrator of ethics involving cats i wonder how this game didn't get my Attention yet. Im going to send a request to permanently delete this game from Steam and saving every poor soul that accidentally stumbles upon it.
Just now found your "Why do I own..." playlist. This is the first I'm watching. But, even though, I'm far from a game dev. My turds in the morning after three cups of coffee are more beautiful. I'm at a loss of words.
Tb, I agree that this game is terrible, but you have to agree that you were not really good at this game either. I mean, the second level is rather easy to be honest.
Uh no they really don't even explain the purpose of each rat . They just throw you in. Expecting the player to know what he/she is doing therefore the only way your going to get past the level is by luckily getting the right projection.
I think TB was trying to do that puzzle wrong but the game still looks so boring... I wouldn't give a rat let alone 50 cents for the game it looks and plays like a rinky dink game on some lil flash web site.
I still can't believe I got every achievement for this game. It's one of those genius works, like Deadly Premonition. It's 49 cents on steam, so go for it!
Why do u have to kill the cat? It looks cute and isn't a threat to anyone! The inventor of this game is a sic animal hating bastard! And i dont mean this in a sarcastic way. Thats horrible!
Bad Rats is one of my favorite games to just have fun in. I know that the game's full of crap, but when you are playing on expert mode, and have everything available, then it is fun to see what you can manage to get done. I didn't like it at first, but after finding out how the game works, the different ways you can manipulate the environment, and how you can use glitches to your favor, my friends and I have been able to find really creative solutions to solving these puzzles. It is a game that everyone has fun watching, and that can't be said about most games. It is also a fairly passive game, so although not everyone is controlling the game, people can still recommend different ways to solve the puzzles. I play this game with a group of friends during our free period at school sometimes, and we always laugh our asses off.
i like how he freaks out over not winning because he didnt put the things where it marked them to be put, he just puts them to the side and everything...
A friend of mine bought this in bulk during christmas and gave me a copy before I realized just what exactly it was... At first I played it, thinking maybe it would be good, but then I found out that by merely repeating a design enough times I was able to win with no changes in my set up.
Same thing has happened to me with Steam whereby I haven't played all of them. Mostly because of those packs which give you a massive discount and end up being cheaper than buying the games I want individually. The Humble bundles and Indie Royales also have something to do with it too. In addition, something a game is given away with the purchase of another titles whether I really wanted it or not.
Wow, there is a lot of trashtalking TB for no real good reason :/ Guys, its a bad puzzle game and the actual solution doesnt matter since you can BS your way to solving it.
RIP Legend. Its 2022 and your still missed. (I wish RUclips would stop making me change my memorial comment every 20 videos. When did they implement this new annoyance?!)
I never quite realize how much I miss this guy until I rewatch some of these old vids. Rest in peace, man.
I agree. RIP
this one too

Help me. Please.
Guess I have to put you down
*_loads gun_*
Imagine how rich the developer has gotten just due to the memes surrounding this game.
Don't mind me - just passing through after an article mentioned this game and brought me down nostalgia lane. Has it really been over 2 years already?
Thanks for the memories TB, and Godspeed, wherever the FOV slider beyond has taken you.
The congrats message should read, "Cong-RAT-ulations"...
Rest peacefully... you magnificent bastard!
Bad Rats is bad. Rats.
Sometimes i come back to TB just to get a relief from the real world. Thanks for everything you did.
Sees TB's steam library.
*Cries out of jealously*
He also has 32gb ram and 2 Nvidia titans. I piss my pants from jealousy.
DeformedBear Cool, an absolutely pointless amount of RAM and two outdated GPUs that require ridiculous cooling, that's something to be jealous of.
Takato142 Compared to my shitty calculator connected to a keyboard, that is indeed something to be jealous of.
Witty Username I’m not jealous of him since he got the cancer boss.
DeformedBear he also had a cancer boss. We should be thankful we aren’t ded

Not sure if trolling or not...
I agree. Before Bad Rats, my life was a meaningless speck upon the turbulent seas of existence. I was unable to comprehend my purpose in the infinity of time.
Now, I am at peace.
REST IN PEACE. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH THANK YOU FOR MAKING ME LAUGH 6 YEARS AFTER THIS VIDEO CAME OUT
even just the intro, just the first 5ish seconds, is enough to inspire a bittersweet note of nostalgia. Rest well, mate. Just wish we coulda had more time with you.

That must be some strong stuff
im here reliving nostalgia also fuck colon cancer rip TB and Chadwick Boseman
I'm surprised there aren't more people talking about how fucking disgusting the concept of this game is. This is the kind of thing a serial killer would get off on.
This is the best game on the planet.
You could have just rotated rocket rat to launch towards the button. Excellent puzzle design.
Actually, only the ball could trigger the button... for some reason.
1 million views for Bad Rats!
Miss you TB :)
I can't play games where you're required to hurt kittens. D:
I'm surprised you couldn't solve that.
I completely lost it the first time the ball fell towards you in that second puzzle xD
The game's awful yes, but TB is really bad at figuring out how you're meant to do this puzzle.
The game may be worthless, but your review is priceless
We need more Why do I own?s. It doesn't even have to be a series, just an occasional thing, but it's so GOOOOOD.
not to be confused with good rats
To be fair, using the bulldozer to push the ball and using the balloon with a bat rat is kind of the obvious thing. I have the game myself and I can't tell if it's just awful or if I make myself fuck up badly just to have a laugh at the physics.
Because you'd never moan about anything, would you? You're a little angel.
TB's brain has just stopped working

This game looks fucking awesome
Holy crap you grew up man lol

Bulldozer pushes ball to left off of ledge.
Batter Rat is floating with balloon.
Hits ball towards bomb.
how is babi formed
12:55 TotalBiscuit is the voice of Portal 2's Rattman? xD
When you added the tractor rat it introduced a new gravitational field, so the simulation results were altered
Still better than Minecraft
Why does everyone attack him about the puzzles when he has acknowledged frequently that he is terrible at puzzles and or puzzle games so I don't understand why people act like he thinks he's the best.
This dude does an awesome job being a very smart commentator while failing hardly at playing itself. Thats one of things i love about his series :D
The game looks awful... which strangely made the video highly entertaining.
This game have 2200 hours at bad rats... wtf? steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198036555810/
Had a friend ask me earlier "what the heck is Bad Rats"? Reminded me of this video. Miss ya TB.
You should've mentioned the masochist that has 12,400 hours of this game.
As the administrator of ethics involving cats i wonder how this game didn't get my Attention yet. Im going to send a request to permanently delete this game from Steam and saving every poor soul that accidentally stumbles upon it.

It's not rocket science though.
I think TotalBiscuit was trying to solve that puzzle in the most odd way.
TB, your incapacity in puzzle games is astonishing! It seems that problem solution is not your strongest field.
It would be in my top 5 race baseball simulator games too!
How... how did his solution for the second puzzle work?
... PHYSICS! apparently.
"I have 607 games on Steam, which I believe is a reasonable number." - TotalBiscuit

There are free flash games that are better then Bad Rats, do not buy it, even if it is on sale for 99%, it is still not worth it.
Oh yes I know lol
i cant watch tb play puzzle games..
After this, of course, it seems that half of RUclips's gaming fans gave this game to Husky.
I saw a guy with ten thousand hours of this game like wow
Armadillo Run is a great game with works with phisics :)
I still can't believe I got every achievement for this game. It's one of those genius works, like Deadly Premonition. It's 49 cents on steam, so go for it!
Goddamn, I'm glad he turned off the comments on his newer videos.
"what kind of abserd breed created this game?"
Germans
As a Warmachine player, I do enjoy how one of Totalbiscut's friends on steam has the Circle of Orboros emblem as their steam picture.
this video made my day...thanks 4 the laughter^^
its ok
How did PewDiePie get involve with this?
I just bought this game and thus will never play another game again. it is the best ever. you just dont get it.
lol it has depth, that is infuriating!
EVVERYBODY!!!!!! BUY REALLY BAD GAMES TO FUCK WITH THE DEVS THAT KNEW ITS BAD!!!!!!!!!!
RIP
The Incredible Machine was better... o_O
The incredible machine actually worked as a game though
ASB PCGaming
The incredible machine WAS ACTUALLY ENTERTAINING. That was a GAME, unlike this... THIS PIECE OF CRAP!
watching "why do i own" series is my new favourite thing
Why do u have to kill the cat? It looks cute and isn't a threat to anyone!
The inventor of this game is a sic animal hating bastard!
And i dont mean this in a sarcastic way. Thats horrible!
I heard Nick likes this game?

laughing my ass off at this xD
While I can agree that this game is terrible, you blatantly ignored what you COULD have done with the objects you had at hand.
Clearly this game was put together by a group of aliens who desired to test the limits of human patience and sanity.
This is like a terrible rip off of Incredible Machine. :(
i like how he freaks out over not winning because he didnt put the things where it marked them to be put, he just puts them to the side and everything...
I do want to see Bad Rats scare cam. This game is utterly terrifying.
We need more of this series.
A friend of mine bought this in bulk during christmas and gave me a copy before I realized just what exactly it was...
At first I played it, thinking maybe it would be good, but then I found out that by merely repeating a design enough times I was able to win with no changes in my set up.
I do love how you can hear TB's slow breakdown.
Same thing has happened to me with Steam whereby I haven't played all of them. Mostly because of those packs which give you a massive discount and end up being cheaper than buying the games I want individually. The Humble bundles and Indie Royales also have something to do with it too. In addition, something a game is given away with the purchase of another titles whether I really wanted it or not.
Your friend is either oblivious, or quite possibly the best friend you will ever have.
This may have been the most funny video I've seen this year.
Potato knishes: the movie: the game: the experience.
Love how this doubles as a Wtf am I doing video.
Wow, there is a lot of trashtalking TB for no real good reason :/
Guys, its a bad puzzle game and the actual solution doesnt matter since you can BS your way to solving it.
I havent laughed this hard in a while, thank you very much!
please bring back this series!
A competitive bad rats player.
I know your just joking and all,but god damn I just love that line
I just recieved this as a gift. Thanks for sharing this with the world TB.......
bought this for my friend for Christmas
The part with the community hub was the greatest thing
I didn't know I would get this much enjoyment from your suffering but oh, I did. That sounded creepy
Had game design classes with a guy who worked on this game.
Cool guy.
RIP Legend. Its 2022 and your still missed. (I wish RUclips would stop making
me change my memorial comment every 20 videos. When did they
implement this new annoyance?!)
Maybe because you're a spammer.
