The multi-award-winning, seafaring, co-op roguelite from Fika Productions, Ship of Fools, casts off onto Nintendo Switch, PlayStation5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC!
Team17 and Fika Productions have today launched zany seafaring cooperative roguelite, Ship of Fools, on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Steam for PC. Set sail on an adventure to counter The Everlasting Storm and the Aquapocalypse, and join the plucky eponymous and anthropomorphic Fools as they fight against monstrous leviathans from the deep and protect their valiant ship, Stormstrider.
The Everlasting Storm is here; watch the Ship of Fools launch trailer now!
As they chart new courses throughout the rocky outcrops that make up their threatened homeland Archipelago, the Fools – either adventuring solo or with a fellow Fool via online or local multiplayer – will face ship boardings from enemies, have to manoeuvre cannons on deck and defend themselves from attack, and conduct multiple runs through choppy waters to avert the end of their world.
Each of the Fools treasure their very own heirloom that imbue them with a passive abilities, such as Shelbie’s soothing shell that increases fire rates and projectile speed, or Finley’s handy hat that unlocks a random reward every time they repair Stormstrider!
Ship of Fools’ launch comes just weeks after securing three MEGAMIGS award wins in Canada in the best audio and music, best art direction and artistic achievement, and best game design categories.
Ship of Fools key features include:
- Bombastic nautical combat – Frantic ship-based combat against colossal leviathans and horrifying creatures from across the deep, dark waters of the Archipelago
- Frantic co-op experience – Designed from the keel up for co-op play, manage ship repairs in the heat of battle, reload and re-manoeuvre cannons, and use paddles to strike enemies as they board the Stormstrider
- Endless replayability – Upgrade your crew and unlock items and additional Fools to take on the ever-changing seas, with multiple runs needed to avert the Aquapocalypse.
