The latest Arcade Archives title to be released for Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 has been confirmed as Rug Rats.
Despite the title, the game has nothing to do with Tommy Pickles and his crew of animated infant chums, though they do also have a new game in the works, on which we’ve previously reported.
No, this Rug Rats is a 1982 arcade game originally released by Nichibutsu.
And like many games released in those early days of video gaming, Rug Rats has a somewhat unique premise. You control a vacuum cleaner and use soap to stun germs before sucking them up.
Despite being based on one of the most boring household chores there is, we’re sure Rug Rats won’t suck, and will turn out to be yet another forgotten arcade treasure found down the back of the sofa by Hamster Corp and their Arcade Archives series.
