About Plunder Squad

Up to 8 players must work together to find treasure in a world generated to challenge their specific abilities.

Each player can choose between the swordsman, archer, gadgeteer, witch, nurse, vampire, immortal, and bomber. You'll be challenged along the way to the treasures with puzzles tailored to these skills.

The rules of the game are pretty simple. Walk left, right, up, or down, or do the one thing your hero does. One hit kills you, but once dead you keep playing as a ghost. Ghosts can be healed by picking up a heart left by a dead monster, or by the Nurse, or by returning to the beginning.

One screen at a time is visible. When all players have left the screen, play moves on. Most screens contain a distinct puzzle.

With one player it's fun, and with multiple players it's a riot!

Meet the heroes



The Swordsman
He can swing a sword one tile's length ahead. It kills monsters, and flings certain objects forward.
The Archer
Fire an unlimited number of arrows in a straight line.
The Gadgeteer
He carries a hookshot, which can be used to zoop across rivers, or to bring objects closer.
The Vampire
Vampire can turn into a bat at will, and can easily cross water and step over footswitches.
The Witch
She charges up a magic spell which shields her from monsters, and when discharged it shoots across the room, killing everything in its path.
The Nurse
Strictly non-combatant, the Nurse shoots hearts at other players to heal them if they die.
The Bomber
He can drop an unlimited number of bombs. This is very helpful for solving the kind of problems that can be solved by explosion.
The Immortal
The mysterious Immortal can run faster than the others and can't be hurt by monsters. Only one force on Earth can kill him...

"Plunder Squad" is a simplistic puzzle adventure game. The Good: You can customize the size and difficulty of each adventure. The game randomly shuffles puzzle templates with roaming monsters. The graphics and music have that nostalgic NES vibe. The Bad: Though it's advertised as Multiplayer, you can only play on one computer. So hopefully you will have eight game controllers lying around. There are some alignment problems with moving books. Rafts always reset, so six of the eight characters cannot travel back. There are no Trading Cards or Achievements at this time

Awesome, hardcore puzzle adventure game for up to 8 players! It's quite the clever and difficult game, it's fun to discuss how to resolve each room with your friends. There are many playable characters each one with their own skill, that could help resolving rooms in many different ways. An hidden gem for sure, if you can play this with more than 4 friends it's a must-have for your multiplayer parties

Игра 'Plunder Squad' подкупает своей динамичностью и простым, но затягивающим геймплеем. Сражения с игроками и боссами проходят стремительно, а прокачка персонажа и сбор экипировки ощутимо влияют на вашу эффективность в бою. Разнообразие персонажей с уникальными способностями добавляет реиграбельности, заставляя экспериментировать с разными стилями игры. Хотя графически игра довольно простая, это компенсируется ярким визуальным стилем и плавной анимацией. Музыкальное сопровождение также хорошо подобрано и не надоедает даже после длительных игровых сессий. Из минусов можно отметить некоторую однообразность игрового процесса и необходимость в гриндге для получения лучшей экипировки. Тем не менее, 'Plunder Squad' – это отличная игра для тех, кто ищет быстрые и динамичные PvP-сражения с элементами RPG. Особенно привлекательна для игры с друзьями, где командная работа и координация становятся ключевыми факторами успеха. Рекомендую!

Plunder Squad is a fun co-op puzzle game where you and your squad race through challenges, solving puzzles and exploring. Some people love the teamwork aspect, while others feel like it’s a little rough around the edges. If you like solving puzzles and running around with friends, it’s a good time. Just don’t expect anything too fancy—it's all about having fun and surviving together!

Great fun for a few hours. It has similar vibes to Pico Park, where the complexity of the puzzles pales in comparison to the insanity of your friends.
