Release Date: March 30, 2023
A narrative adventure game with an open world. The Last Worker offers a vision of reality in which robots are increasingly taking people's jobs. Although the game takes on a difficult and emotional subject matter, it does not lack humorous accents.
The Last Worker is a narrative adventure game published by Wired Productions. It was developed by Oiffy and Wolf & Wood Interactive studios. While Wired specialises in storytelling through video games, film and television, Oiffy and Wolf & Wood have previously worked on VR games including A Chair in a Room, Star Trek Timelines, The Harbinger Trial and The Exorcist.
The Last Worker takes us on a journey to a world where robots are making people unemployed more and more every day. The game tells about the problems caused by the progressing automatisation at an alarming pace. Although the plot of the game does not avoid difficult topics and emotional issues that make you think, it does not lack humorous accents.
In The Last Worker the action is presented from a first person perspective (FPP). For the needs of the game a vast world was developed, which is as big as Manhattan. During the game we explore the large map and follow the storyline, getting to know many colourful characters.
Graphic design of The Last Worker was kept in comic style. It was based on sketches by Mick McMahon - a famous comic book artist, whose portfolio includes such titles as Judge Dredd or 2000 AD.

Game Ratings for The Last Worker Video Game.
PC Invasion: 3.5 / 10 by Andrew Farrell
With a story that's as empty and meandering as its gameplay, The Last Worker is an ugly, tedious slog that I'm glad to be done with.
Slant Magazine: 2.5 / 5 by Aaron Riccio
Even the game’s most effectively bleak ending, in which Jüngle’s founder, Josef Jüngle, is revealed to have been dead and automated for quite some time, is undercut by him still being very much alive in the other two endings. The Last Worker’s conclusions should feel earned—that is, a consequence of the protagonist’s decisions. Instead, they’re as easy and largely frivolous as just adding something to an online shopping cart.
Nintendo Life: 7 / 10 by Roland Ingram
The Last Worker is an ambitious project and it sticks the landing when it comes to graphics, performance, and voice acting. However, its central box-shipping game is fiddly and the game's pacing doesn't let you get into the flow. Tricky sections requiring repeated checkpoint loads break the immersion and clash with the long, dawdling sections of exploring the Jüngle facility. It's likeable and well-packaged with plenty of character, but it doesn't always deliver.
Average score from votes.
