The Last Worker is an underdog story that feels incredibly timely, even more so now than it did a year ago when I first played the game at PAX East. Its themes of corporate corruption and commentary on capitalism are quite sharp, and the game manages to convey all of this without coming off as overly depressing or heavy-handed. Despite some iffy movements on controller, The Last Worker is sure to be one of the year’s best narratives. This review is based on a digital download code provided by the publisher.

An entertaining and fiercely satirical evocation of a future corporate dystopia, that manages to be both genuinely funny and surprisingly varied in its gameplay. Pros: Fresh, constantly morphing gameplay with superb writing and voice-acting.

The Last Worker is a great trip into a dystopian world that has a great art style, well written story, and strong voice performances. Some gameplay sections were annoying and the game doesn’t control as well when played in virtual reality but those parts didn’t stop me from enjoying my time with this one at the end of the day. *The Last Worker is available now on PlayStation 5, PlayStation VR2, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch, and PC.

Despite a few issues with the controls, The Last Worker is a riveting 6-to-8-hour narrative experience. Sorting each box as a pseudo-employee is surprisingly entertaining, and the characters are endearing. There are also twists and turns in the storyline that will keep you gripped throughout this journey, at least until the endings start to play out. With the gorgeous visuals by Mick McMahon, fun gameplay, and meaningful script, I’d happily recommend The Last Worker. You just need to struggle through the awkward controls and some confusing game design.
