6 itemsAbout the Game
P1R4T3S! is a roguelike game with RPG elements by the creators of Lovecraft’s Untold Stories.
Space travel is a dangerous endeavour – apart from asteroids and space-time oddities, there are space pirates lurking behind every small moon, waiting for unaware ships they can board and plunder. You know perfectly well because, of course, you are one of these pirates! Your crew of miscreants and you just caught a merchant ship, and you’re now making your way through its corridors, looting all the treasure you can, grabbing a couple of hostages since you’re at it, and shooting the hell out of any scurvy landlubber who dares to try stopping you. When you’ve got enough riches, you plan on building a bigger and faster ship and a base on a small meteorite, like the famed space pirates of old. You dream of becoming one day the one and only King of P1r4t3s of the galaxy. And who knows, maybe then you will be able to find your lost family…
