I found that The Survivor was the perfect way for me to experience Rain World. The Survivor works as a nice balance between the two, and is what I opted to go with. It should also be noted that The Hunter playstyle is initially locked and can’t be selected until completing Rain World once on an easier difficulty. The Hunter looks to truly push players to their limits, offering a chaotic and difficult adventure. The monk serves as an easy difficulty, promising a peaceful experience. Players select from three different difficulties: The Monk, The Survivor, and The Hunter. Rain World’s single player mode begins with the Slugcat (a small cute creature with a cat-like body and the tail of a slug that exists in the middle of the foodchain in this ecosystem) being separated from its family during an intense storm, setting the stage for a tough journey home. Rain World initially released on PlayStation 4 and PC in 2017, now making its way to Nintendo’s hot console/handheld hybrid. Scrap together weapons and rummage around for food if you have any hopes of surviving in this unforgiving world and finding your loved ones. To do so, you’ll have to navigate through treacherous wastelands and ancient civilizations, relying on your instincts and survival tactics to overcome the danger lurking at every corner. This 16-bit inspired survival platformer centers around a slugcat, desperate to reunite with their family.

Rain World was developed by Videocult and published by Adult Swim Games.
