Choose one of the four Rat Queens from the Image Comics bestselling Comic book series of the same name, each with asymmetric and unique playstyles, in order to save Palisade from total destruction. Power up your Queen (Betty, Hannah, Violet or Dee) with ass kicking new abilities as you take on hordes of evil, despicable villains. Friendship and teamwork are critical to gaining strength and momentum as you slaughter and stack up the bodies of your enemies. Rat Queens utilizes a fun and intuitive Friendship System, where leaving a Queen Token on the board for other Queens allows them to directly improve their skills and unlock special abilities. Work together, massacre evil, and score as much loot as you can before the big bad boss arrives to flatten Palisade and erase it from history. Sharpen your blades, pack your gear, and imbibe an intoxicant of your choice. It's time to take Vengeance on Villains.
