About this game

Set in the laboratory of world-renowned rat-scientist Paradox, Schrodinger's Rat combines an experiment in quantum physics with labyrinth-like maze challenges. Working through all the elements of the periodic table, Paradox must discover the ideal path for rescuing all of the rats that have given their lives to science throughout time.

Schrodinger’s Rat is a whimsical tribute to the real-world thought experiment “Schrodinger’s Cat” first introduced by Austrian physicist Erwin Schrodinger in 1935. In it, Schrodinger illustrated the issues of quantum mechanics (according to the Copenhagen interpretation) when applied to everyday objects. Using this as the premise, Schrodinger’s Rat introduces concepts of the Periodic Table and all its Elements as a forum for exploring atomic science.
