Murderous Pursuits is the next multiplayer assassination game from The Ship: Remasted devs
Oooh, now this is intriguing - The Ship: Remasted devs Blazing Griffin are taking another stab at their 'murder party' formula. Today they announced Murderous Pursuits, a game about hunting (and being hunted by) other players. You have to sneak up on your quarry by pretending to be one of the AI characters milling around, just like in the old Assassin's Creed multiplayer modes but…
For those who've not heard of The Ship and have romantic visions of sailing the seven seas, I'll quickly state that it's a game about murder. To expand a little, it's a multiplayer FPS about passengers aboard a cruise ship trying to have a pleasant holiday and stealthily off their target - perhaps catching them unaware while they have a waz. I asked you for…
Feature:
Have You Played? is an endless stream of game recommendations. One a day, every day of the year, perhaps for all time. If so, please tell me stories from it.

Fun fact: RPS is actually operated in its fundane day-to-day fashion entirely from the crowded deck of an upscale 1920s cruise liner. While jovially spinning our thoughts into the most eloquent of wordshapes, Jim, John, Alec, Adam, and I are constantly engaged in a methodical hunt for one other. We like to think that the ever-present threat of death keeps our writing sharp. But finally,…
I'm incredibly proud to announce that Indie Royale has finally graduated. I haven't the foggiest idea of what it's actually graduated from, but it has one of those fun dangly tassel hats now, so that means it's probably smarter than me. Before it goes off and writes the next great American novel while aboard a rocket of its own construction made from inferior American novels,…
Bargain King Lewie Procter alerts me to new that the new owners of Half-Life mod-gone-pro The Ship are offering a Christmas present to existing owners of the comedy assassination game. And yes, they do openly admit it's also "a transparent attempt at some shameless marketing", which makes it an even easier pill to swallow. Basically, if you've bought (or decide to buy) The Ship at…
