About Jamestown

✦ AI summary

Jamestown: Legend Of The Lost Colony is an arcade-style top-down shooter where you and up to three friends blast through 17th-century Colonial Mars with handcrafted pixel art and orchestral soundtracks. Its standout co-op mechanic lets any surviving player revive fallen teammates, making every player's survival crucial to the team's victory.

Please note: we've recently released Jamestown+, a remastered version of this game with more content, better performance, updated visuals, and a remastered soundtrack! This page will likely be delisted soon.

--

Jamestown: Legend Of The Lost Colony is a neo-classical top-down shooter for up to 4 players, set on 17th-century British Colonial Mars. It features all the intensity, depth, and lovingly handcrafted pixels of a classic arcade shooter, with a modern twist: deeply-integrated cooperative gameplay.
Unlike most top-down shooters, which give multiple players a shared pool of lives or continues, Jamestown does something different. So long as any player survives, the team can be brought back from death. By giving every player the power to rescue their team from the jaws of destruction, Jamestown creates an exhilarating cooperative experience where everyone’s contribution truly matters. Win or lose, your team will do it together.

Key features:

  • Blast your way through historic Mars as a crack team of up to 4 friends in local co-op mode
  • Marvel and rejoice at vast expanses of lovingly handcrafted pixels
  • Escape into a fast-paced story of swashbuckling redemption
  • Epic orchestral scores composed by Francisco Cerda, unique to each level
  • Brave the hostile Martian frontier with your pick of 1619’s finest steampunk weaponry
  • Master innovative co-op mechanics paired with classical top-down shooter gameplay
  • Test your skills against 20+ rule-bending bonus levels
  • Run the “Gauntlet” arcade mode, and play Jamestown like it’s 1996
  • Leverage the unique scoring system to claw your way up the online leaderboards
  • Unlock all 30+ Steam achievements... if you can!

What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

Jamestown is praised for its creative artwork, excellent music, and fun arcade-style gameplay that works well with friends, but players note the main campaign is very short (around 30 minutes) and the game appears to be abandoned with unresolved technical launch issues for some users. Most recommendations suggest picking it up only on sale if you enjoy score-chasing and challenge runs, as the core content doesn't justify full price despite its polished presentation.

Recommended Sep 26, 2026
I found this game to be really fresh, and a lot of fun to play. Artwork, music, story and presentation were all very thoughtful and creative / top notch! Sadly, the whole thing, story and all takes about half an hour to get through, and then you are left with a bunch of challenges that take place on all the levels you have already played before. I would only recommend this game if you can get it for a few $$ or love chasing high scores and doing shmup challenges over and over. If you are more interested in the originality of the artwork, etc. that I mentioned, just go check it out on youtube during your next lunch break.
Not recommended Sep 13, 2026
Can't seem to launch the game. There's at least 5 forum posts discussing various issues preventing people from being able to launch the game going back years which are all unaddressed.
Recommended Sep 6, 2026
I like Jamestown quite a bit. It's comfort food simple arcade gaming for me. Really enjoyable, easy to sit down and challenge your friends to beat your score, fun to experiment with the different ships.

Got this games years ago. The goods: Easy SHUMPS. Tons of fun with friends. Soundtrack is EPIC! The bads: No spaceship with homing missile. Side-mission are crazy difficult. No cloud saving.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
