The player is given little explicit guidance on how to survive, which was the intention of the developers, who wanted players to feel like a rat living on subway tracks, in which they learn to survive in an environment without grasping its higher-level function.

The slugcat uses debris as weapons to escape enemies, scavenge for food, and reach safe hibernation rooms before a deadly torrential rain arrives. Players assume control of the "slugcat", an elongated felid-like creature, and are tasked with survival in a derelict and hostile world. Rain World is a 2017 survival platform game developed by Videocult and published by Adult Swim Games and Akupara Games for PlayStation 4 and Microsoft Windows in March 2017, and for Nintendo Switch in late 2018.
