In Cratscendo, you play as the Pied Piper of Hamelin who is serving time in jail for his crimes against the city. With your ability to control rats with music, make your way through this 2.5D dungeon crawler/roguelike to learn new melodies, collect golden cheese, and build your orchestra of rats. 

Enjoy an aesthetic mix of 3D background with pixel art animations while you fight your way out using creative button combo based actions. With controller and keyboard button mappings, dodge arrows and defeat enemies while being strategic about rat usage to make it out of the dungeon. Feel the pressure with Original Soundtrack and immersive SFX! 

While you may find yourself frustrated with failing to escape, what matters is the journey, not how long it took you to get there. Change your strategy and begin again!
