Rug Rats — About this game
Rug Rats, also released as Rug Rats, places KOOMIL the vacuum cleaner in a room occupied by germs. Cleaning uncovers useful objects, but the moving germs also need to be dealt with. Soap stuns an enemy so that it can be inhaled, turning a dangerous approach into an opportunity to clear space. Rotating a mat with several germs caught in it offers another way to score. Watching their positions before using those tools helps the cleaner continue working instead of running into an active germ.
