The Last Worker delivers in almost all aspects: beautiful aesthetics, great dialogue, and a satisfying gameplay loop all combine to create a genuinely fun title that is much more than what I initially expected.

A strong, compelling narrative that's only made better by great visuals and superb voice acting

An entertaining and fiercely satirical evocation of a future corporate dystopia, that manages to be both genuinely funny and surprisingly varied in its gameplay.

There’s no denying that consumerism is a pox upon our very existence. With our ever-growing desire for creature comforts, keeping up with the current trends, and salivating over the most recent technological advancements, we as a species continue to take and take from our precious planet. But what happens when we go too far? What happens when we surrender our freewill into the hands of those that provide the unyielding supply of the almighty goods? These are some of the questions that The L...

If you’ve got an evening that you want to fill with a charming narrative adventure, The Last Worker will fit the bill. Just don’t expect it to make a major impact on you. While its story starts out strong, it fizzles out as it reaches its climax, and a number of frustrating gameplay elements suck a little fun from the experience. Thankfully, the strength of its presentation and excellent voice acting will at least keep you determined to see things through.

The Last Worker offers an intriguing blend of gameplay elements, but it labours under some dodgy mechanics and questionable design decisions.

The Last Worker is available for a wide range of platforms (including on Utomik, which we found to be an intuitive take on subscription services that while having a few issues with performance, served as a packed and interesting indie-first substitute for a subscription style that Game Pass still finds itself as the gold standard of) and for PlayStation 5 and PC it can also be played in VR, with PSVR2 and Meta Quest 2.

The Last Worker is a short, but enjoyable narrative-driven game about a worker trying to find his own path and break free from capitalism. And, for the most part, it plays very well on the Steam Deck!

Although The Last Worker's novel work-gameplay template & tangible proximity to its critiques earns some credit, it often fumbles with the delivery.When considering recent developments in AI and companies like McDonald's rolling out a fully-automated venue, humanity is in [...]

The Last Worker is quite an entertaining take on a capitalist dystopia!

Mar 31, 2023

The Last Worker’s comically exaggerated vision of the future of work is highly relevant. Yet its story focuses on showcasing the talents of its stellar voice cast at the expense of offering meaningful things to do, and its satirical punches rarely leave lasting bruises.
