Jump, dodge, grab your salary.
Rat Race is a free video game made in Luxembourg, played in the browser: a runner in the spirit of Chrome Dino, the Google Chrome dinosaur game (chrome://dino). Jump, duck, touch nothing. A man, a woman or a rat in its ball runs to the office through 65 recognisable cities, each with its landmarks drawn in pixel art: Luxembourg (Red Bridge, Gëlle Fra, Philharmonie, Adolphe Bridge), then Paris, London, Brussels, Frankfurt, Zurich, Dubai, New York, Tokyo, the NATO capitals and the great megacities. Unlock a red fox that eats birds, the red lion of Luxembourg that eats them too and double-jumps every 100 m, and a cycling commuter; a coffee on the road gives anyone a double jump.
Each day brings a new Daily commute: a 900 m course from home to the office (Kirchberg, La Défense, Canary Wharf and more), the same for everyone, with three counted attempts, a daily streak and a result strip to share with your colleagues. The Commuter level takes a cross-border commuter home from Luxembourg to Arlon, Thionville, Trier, Metz or Nancy, jumping onto broken-down cars and stalled trains. The Alzette mission follows the river from its source in Thil to Ettelbruck, through 20 towns and their landmarks. Every run ends with a leaderboard (nicknames optional). On a computer, the B key hides the game behind a fake spreadsheet. Once loaded, the game works offline, on phone and computer. No ads.
