The Last Worker is an immersive narrative adventure centered around a lone worker’s last stand in an increasingly automated world, The Last Worker is a unique blend of work simulation and stealth strategic gameplay.
The game is set in a lonely, oppressive but strangely beautiful environment, with characters designed by comics legend Mick McMahon.
Kurt works for the world’s largest retailer and is forced to choose between capitalism or activism. Having dedicated his life to work, Kurt’s loyalty is put to the test when a group of activists ask him to dismantle Jungle from the inside.
Aboard his corporate issued flying JunglePod and armed with his multi-purpose JungleGun, Kurt dispatches countless products from a fulfilment center the size of the sunken city of Manhattan.
Kurt (voiced by Olafur Darri Olafsson) has dedicated his life to Jungle, with only his co-bot, Skew (Jason Isaacs) to keep him company. But when S.P.E.A.R., a group of activists, asks Kurt to help dismantle Jungle from the inside, Kurt is forced to discover his employer’s dark underbelly.
