Seafaring Co-op Roguelite Ship Of Fools Will Be Launching On Steam Later This Year

Indie roguelites have been popping like mushrooms over the past few months thanks to Valve’s marketing efforts on Steam. The most recent addition to the platform’s digital shelves is Ship of Fools, a ship-based seafaring co-op roguelite from Canadian indie developer Fika Productions and British publisher Team17.

“Ship of Fools is a seafaring roguelite co-op game where you play the Fools, the only creatures fool enough to brave the sea. The Great Lighthouse that once protected the Archipelago is broken and a storm of malice and corruption is coming.

Together, you and your ship mate will jump aboard The Stormstrider and make your voyage across the sea. Man the cannons, ready your sails and protect your ship from sea monsters over multiple runs. It’s up to you to defend your home from the almighty Aquapocalypse.”

The game revolves around blasting away waves of sea monsters and seaborne foes using The Stormstrider’s mounted cannons. Players will have to work together to defend and repair the ship as they set sail for remote islands to gather loot and supplies.

Ship of Fools is set to arrive later this year and is now available for wishlisting on Steam.
