Exploring New Shores
At first glance, this game has an incredibly original concept. It involves you, as well as up to three other people, being pirates working for an extremely strict captain. As a part of the crew, you must sail to the unknown island, collect gold, furniture and other valuables, and then rush to the boat in the shortest amount of time possible, otherwise the captain will punish you.
The thematic originality and a great atmosphere created by the game bring a lot of positive vibes to an otherwise boring and dull genre. Instead of regular faceless corporate workers, we have greedy and cowardly pirates who are trying to steal valuable items in order to gain money and become rich. Additionally, communication and teamwork play an incredibly important role in this game, as the player should either be heroic or use his/her fellow crew members as cover fire to avoid dangers while carrying all the loot.
The Stretchy Mechanic
What really distinguishes Last Pirates: Die Together from other titles within this genre is the unique stretchy mechanic of the game.
Instead of simply walking and picking items up manually, you can now stretch your elastic arms in all directions to grab everything on the island. The mechanic not only feels incredibly satisfying but it also adds an extra fun aspect of tearing the world apart to take whatever you want. It definitely spices up the process of looting and makes it a little more unpredictable and challenging.
Horrible Monsters
In order to survive, we have to deal with the enemy on this island. Speaking of enemy design, I would say that Last Pirates: Die Together beats many of the most popular titles in terms of variety of monsters and their quality. Without going into spoilers too much, it should be noted that there are plenty of monsters that require completely different approaches and strategies to kill. One of them has a scary ability to suck the player right into its claws. Once it starts chasing you, you'll know exactly how to feel and react.
The final aspect to praise here is the presence of the revive mechanics. Unlike a number of similar titles which do not allow any respawning at all, Last Pirates: Die Together offers players an opportunity to revive each other and continue playing even when one team member is killed. It greatly helps with creating a good experience for each and every player in the game.
Where Does It Place in the Genre?
As it often happens in gaming industry, comparisons are inevitable when discussing similar games. To be honest, Last Pirates: Die Together is not able to compete with the absolute best ones such as REPO in terms of polishing, quality and overall level of development. However, it is a very close second place compared to the other titles of this kind.
It does not aim to repeat the success of other games but takes the basic formula and applies an additional pirate theme and new mechanics to it, thus becoming something that stands out from other titles.
The game will be available relatively soon
