Our take on P1R4T3S
The page foregrounds online co-op among its feature claims, but describes it as a later addition. The available play description instead centers on solo pirate raids, loot, and ship and base development, so co-op should not be read as part of the current offering.
What is P1R4T3S?
P1R4T3S!
is a roguelike with RPG elements in which players lead a pirate crew through ships, space stations, and land bases. The twin-stick shooter combat involves fighting the locations’ crews while searching for treasure. Loot and gathered resources can be used to buy gear, improve a customizable ship, and build a base. Players can also capture cargo and prisoners, then ransom or sell them. Character and gear customization are included. The store text presents online co-op as a planned addition, not a current feature. The game’s story premise includes the captain’s lost family and a goal of becoming the galaxy’s leading pirate.
