Hello, Ratizens! It’s been a while since we last greeted you! The new city-building game, Ratopia, which expands on the world of Ratropolis, will be officially released on May 1st! Ratopia continues the story after Ratropolis, featuring familiar characters returning to action in a new city while preserving the emotional essence of Ratropolis. As a leader, you’ll build your city, manage its economy, and experience defense gameplay by fending off invasions from plague rats and weasels.
Check out the trailer below to get a preview of the game’s atmosphere!
To celebrate, we’ve prepared a special opportunity for those who haven’t experienced Ratropolis yet. From April 8 to April 22, you can get Ratropolis at a whopping 75% discount! If you haven’t played it yet—or know a friend who’d love it—don’t miss out on this chance!
Bug Reports and Future Plans
We are currently reviewing and collecting your bug reports mainly through the Steam Community and the Bug Report Board on Discord. Fixable bugs among these are planned to be addressed within this year. As we are currently focusing on the development of Ratopia, it's difficult to push updates right away, but once Ratopia has stabilized, we’ll work quickly to deliver updates.
Thank you, as always, for your continued support and love. We hope you enjoy your adventures in both Ratropolis and Ratopia! Thank you!

Dear Leaders of Ratropolis.
We recently discovered that the game's price was set based on the 2019 exchange rate. It wouldn't have been an issue if the price was simply low, but we also identified instances where this exchange rate was exploited to unfairly purchase the game through specific countries. Due to this, we have inevitably decided to adjust the game's price to reflect the current exchange rate. The adjusted price will be set in line with Steam's pricing policy. The price adjustment will take effect from November 1st, 00:00 (UTC+9).
We hope for your understanding, and we sincerely apologize to those who are adversely affected by this price adjustment. We will continue to do our best to show you our best side. Thank you.
--- 10.30. Additional Notice ---
Dear Leaders of Ratopolis.
Last week, we've announced about the price adjustment due to the exchange rate issues. However, surprisingly on the next day, an official announcement regarding this issue was released by Steam. So instead, we've decided to follow the announcement. The price change, which was initially scheduled for November 1st, will be applied on November 20th instead. In short, Steam plans to change the payment currency to USD for certain designated countries. There will be no price changes in other countries. And for all, fall discount is scheduled for November 20th.

The translation of some languages will improve. 4. The balance of cards and advisors will be adjusted. 5. Additional achievements.
Perhaps more will change than this. ːsteamhappyː

(!!!) A note if you haven't been in touch - unfortunately we have removed your savefile as of Update 1.0.7107 which introduced a gamemode (now obsolete) for the Navigator Leader. We sincerely apologize for not announcing the reset beforehand, AND deleting them eventually; we realize that a lot of effort had been put into your previous savefiles. ːsteamsadː Over the past eight months, we've re-worked the existing Cards, added hundreds of new Cards, removed some, and changed the Unlock system. These significant changes have altered our savefile format, so old savefiles are no longer COMPATIBLE with the newest release. That's why it was inevitable for us to reset the player-progression. Nevertheless, our team could have prevented this situation if we were more capable. We, again, apologize for the reset, and PROMISE that there won't be any more resets that causes frustration for everyone.

In January 2018, we created our proof of concept for Ratropolis in a college classroom. Since then, many have backed up our development so we could arrive here. We still remember the people who enjoyed our prototype, gave us cheer and support. Those encouraging words have been a great development motive for our entire team.
We've enjoyed the process of making Ratropolis, all thanks to our dear players' keen interest and feedback. We, again, appreciate all players who've been with us. Now we humbly ask of you to give more attention to developers, especially behind indie games. Devs work all day and night to create an exciting experience for players.
As always, we will monitor the game and release patches whenever necessary, so our players won't have any issues. Some gameplay adjustments and polishes will be on their way.
We are also planning to release a mobile version of Ratropolis, and finally take the very first step for our new game.
Have a wonderful holiday, and stay in good health. From CasselWolf
