QUICK ANSWER
Resonance is not built around the rat swarms of Innocence and Requiem. It replaces that pressure with Minotaur mythology, a worm-like pursuer, Petrified enemies and dark sequences where light is safety.
A different kind of Plague Tale threat
GameSpew states plainly that there is not a rat to be found and frames the game as a shift from rats and stealth toward combat and puzzles. TechRadar makes the same broad distinction in its review.
That does not make the adventure harmless. Official material warns of a force hunting Sophia in the dark, and the walkthrough documents pursuer and Petrified sequences that cannot be solved with normal combat.
Light is the survival rule
The worm pursuit uses illuminated safe zones and committed traversal. Petrified enemies cannot reach Sophia in light, and away from it they can sometimes be bypassed with slow movement or redirected from a blocked route.
The Minotaur imagery connects the island's myth, the Minoan past and the older timeline. The site avoids naming late-game answers outside clearly marked walkthrough pages.
Quick player questions
Does Resonance have rat swarms?
No. Launch reviews describe the game as moving away from the franchise's rat-driven gameplay.
Can I fight every monster?
No. Some dark encounters are built around light, stealth or escape rather than direct damage.
