Story:

It’s been two days since I’ve encountered the beast. I’ve managed to lure it into the sewer system by throwing scraps of cheese and jerky into the sewer grates around town, and now it is time to put this demonic nightmare to rest. I  brought my hammer with me to break things, but I don’t know if I’ll be able to take it in a fight. I’ll have to be careful too, it already knows my scent.

Controls:

• Move with WASD or Arrow Keys
• Use Water Valves to transfer water between rooms
  • Open the water valve menu by approaching a valve, close by moving away
  • Rooms with a water level of 5 are closed off, preventing the player from entering or leaving
• Click buttons with mouse
  • Clicking the hammer allows you to destroy passages by moving close to them blocking both you and the monster from using them.
  • Click on the minimap to expand the map and gain access to the sonar system. This will tell you where the monster is temporarily.
• Press R to interact with the Emergency Tasks, the Drain, and the Exit.

Advice: 

• Take your time, the game is turn based and you have 30 seconds between actions. 
• If the rat is moving  too fast try flooding it early on, the rat will wait longer based on the water level of the room it is in
• The amount of turns it takes to move between rooms is based on the average water level between the rooms you are moving, try moving the water to a room you're not going in order to reduce the turns it takes to move between rooms.
• If the rat gets stuck in a position where it is impossible for it to follow the player it will build up a rage meter, when this meter is full it will break the connection that it is stuck on and move at a much faster rate for 3 movement cycles. If you notice that the rat is stuck, create distance between you and it.
