About the Game

Big Jays Rattastic Adventure is a 3D mascot platformer game with tons of collectibles. Every level can be finished without collecting anything, but the more stuff you grab, the better grade you get at the end of each level. Unlock more levels and stuff by getting higher grades or completing certain tasks. Big Jays Rattastic Adventure features a unique retro look through it’s voxel models. Complete optional NPC quests to get bonus achievements. Unlock secret bonus levels by exploring. 

You play as Big Jay, the fattest cheese loving rat that exists. Try to get back his stolen cheese. You run, jump, roll, tail helicopter, and attack your way through multiple levels. Each level has a minimum of 3 golden cheeses to collect, and a ton of coins. Jump on giant bouncy mushrooms, ring shooters, and more to fly through the air. Hit speed pads for a speed boost to clear huge jumps and large distances. Use your rat tail as a helicopter and glide through the air. Some levels feature an end boss, while others opt to test your puzzle solving and/or platforming skills.

Big Jay can attack enemies in your path to help clear the way for you. You attack by throwing your bottle of “wheat juice” or rolling over your enemies.
