Rat Hotel is a video game in the action genre developed by Tensor Technology, Inc. and published by Creative Software, Inc. originally released in 1983. It is currently playable on VIC-20.
In Rat Hotel the player takes control of a rat and has to eat cheese while not getting caught by Waldo, a maintenance man who hates rats. It takes place in the Paradisio Hotel and on each of the floors of the hotel the rat has to eat all the pieces of cheese in order to take the elevator to the next floor. At the same time he has to keep an eye on Waldo and the traps he has placed all over the hotel. Any contact with Waldo or a trap will cause one of the three lives to be lost, but an extra one is awarded after 10,000 points. There is also a time limit, as the rat only has three minutes to get from the top floor to the bottom floor. The color of the cheese changes over time and it is important not to eat it when it is black, as it paralyzes the rat. However, when it turns blue it is worth twice as many points as orange. Once the rat has eaten the big cheese in the basement the level will be completed and you will move on to a more difficult level. The difficulty level can also be chosen before starting the game.
