Corporate ambition. Imperial decadence. Survival instinct.


What do office workers, Roman emperors, and rats have in common? They rise. They claw. They collapse.


RATKING is a punch-in-the-face response to the question of who we are when we have power... and who we are when we don’t.


Behind the office wall, a rat colony breeds and starves. In the cutthroat world of a tech start-up, workers scramble for promotion. In ancient Rome, blood boils beneath the marble as family turns against family.


Worlds blur. Bodies distort. The cycle repeats.


Darkly comic and visually charged, RATKING is a high-energy spectacle of ambition, seduction, and collapse. When the cloud bursts, who will survive the fall?


Join the race.
