Ship of Fools is a seafaring cooperative roguelite. Set sail, man the cannons and battle sea monsters through the tempestuous seas of the Archipelago. Are you fool enough to stop the Aquapocalypse?
A joyous, chaotic co-op roguelite that rewards teamwork and creativity, one of the best two-player runs you can have.
Overall, Ship of Fools is a nice experience. The gameplay is unique, blending a top-down roguelike with an almost Overcooked style crisis management gameplay loop. Enemies, while somewhat simple, clearly telegraph their attacks and kept me entertained throughout my playthrough. The lack of wholly novel bosses and artifacts does make some playthroughs...
Ship of Fools has a few annoying control issues but is an otherwise fun co-op rogue-lite with an absolute ship-ton of unlockable items that can be combined together for explosive results.
Whilst multiplayer games are plentiful, it's still surprisingly difficult to find decent two-player local co-op games. Thankfully, with Ship of Fools, you and a friend don't need to worry, as you'll be happily blasting sea-beasts for hours, days, weeks, and months to come. Ridiculously fun and stupidly addictive, Ship of Fools is a delight!
If you’re looking for a fun, frivolous-yet-high-stakes couch or online co-op game, round up your favourite fools and give Ship of Fools a go.
