They're everywhere" - PC Review "The idea of this fun and somewhat warped game is to kill all the rats before they have a chance to mate and overrun the maze" - Personal Computer World "Try gassing them or bombing them, but whatever you do, don't let them mate or you'll have a plague on your hands!" - PC Answers "Kill all the rats before they have a chance to mate and overrun the maze" - PCW "Rodent-haters of the world, unite!

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Chop Town at Free against Rats!'s $1.99. Chop Town also leads on rating (5.0 vs 2.9) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 48 months). Rats!'s advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.
