So all this sounds great right? Well for the most part it is a great game. The difficulty of the game steadily ramps up so as to introduce you to the game elements before unleashing the full operational coastguard on you. Does it keep it’s fun factor the more you play. Actually yes. The game is a souls-like on water. It’s punishing but rewarding. Regardless of how you play the game, there are hours of fun gameplay to be had with Bootleg Steamer.

The indie market is saturated. Therefore, it is tough to stand out from the crowd. Luckily, Bootleg Steamer does just that with its fresh gameplay, authentic aesthetics, and addictive nature. What’s more, putting the boot into the government’s ridiculous laws is the cherry on top of a crime-riddled cake. Unsurprisingly, I love this naughty prohibition-breaking title and recommend buying it here! Profit is profit, no matter how many laws you break. Pick a ship, choose your crew, and avoid the coastguard.
