![Game Preview: Tales & Games: The Pied Piper, or Taking a Spin on the Merry-Go-Rats](https://cf.geekdo-images.com/ev3s0v7gVL1JTqCS-lokzg__thumb/img/9Ceyu2qicOs-tKkfte7yH-wS7zc=/fit-in/200x150/filters:strip_icc()/pic2800724.jpg)
When one thinks about trying to create a game out of the legend of "The Pied Piper of Hameln", one might expect a cooperative game in which players fight an ever-growing swarm of rats side-by-side, calling on the piper to strengthen their forces at critical junctures during which all seems lost, or perhaps a game of friendly competition in which players see who can draw more rats out of town — but no, Largeaud and PBC have instead set players against one another with the only goal being to outlast everyone else while staying as rat-free as possible. Sure, you might still come down with the plague, but at least you're better off than those other guys!
