About This Game



Play a wild mix of fun party games agames as the action regularly switches back and forth between games. Can you handle the switcheroo chaos? Join your friends both on the couch and online while sadistically laughing at their misfortune, or come back to haunt them if you die. Run, jump and slap your way to victory!

  • Party Game madness: experience switcheroo chaos as the action jumps between multiple intense minigames when you least expect it, or take the challenge of completing a full play through of each minigame once. Face different game types and surprise bonus stages.
  • Pick your Marooner: a host of quirky characters to unlock and play as, 60+ hilarious weapons to unlock and use, and if you die... come back as a ghost to haunt your friends.
  • Play Party Mode and Arena Mode: 25 different games and arena maps, as you race for treasure in Party Mode or duke it out to see who will be king of the ring in Arena Mode. Whichever mode you pick, expect the unexpected!
  • Seamless local and online play: up to 6 players in any combination of local and online as you level up and unlock new weapons, plus full bot support to play solo and in multiplayer mode, spectator mode, streamlined matchmaker and lobby system.

Marooners throws you into a chaotic mix of minigames. You’ll be switching back and forth between exotic locations, all the while grabbing as much treasure as you can. Just try not to get drowned, burned, squashed, blown up, or worse...

You also have the option to experience a complete run where you play every game once to full completion, or just watch some games in spectator mode!

Onward, treasure and victory await!


Playing with friends in your own living room is awesome, and we support that! But maybe you want to party with friends or strangers online? No worries! People from all over the world can easily play together, and you can even combine 2-6 local and / or online players, so your local friends can play with your offline friends. And if you need some extras to make up the numbers or don't feel so sociable, you can bring in the AI pirate bots to join the game.


As well as Party Mode, you can challenge your friends in Arena Mode to see who's the king of the ring! Battle it out across 12 different locations, and expect to stumble upon fresh new chaos from time to time in the form of a hidden game mode or two! Expect the unexpected, and die... we mean WIN in extreme ways! What are you waiting for, there's treasure out there!


Unlock cool and quirky characters as you play, and choose your favorite. Then load up with one of 70+ unique weapons that will make your opponents think twice about messing with you!

Shallow, repetitive, and really just not much fun. Play 10 minutes and you've experienced all this game has to offer, and it's unlikely it'll be enough to compel you to return for a rerun. Steam Link + Controllers supported. ---These issues have been fixed with a update--- + The sudden shifts between activities feels gimmicky, abruptly ending the action and feeling frustrating rather than the "sense of random chaos" the game boasts. There's no fun in splitting up an activity into pieces that are played out in short sprints. + There's comparisons being made to Mario Party and the like but this game doesn't offer that feeling at all. Imagine playing a Mario Party mini-activity where halfway through an activity it suddenly switched to another activity, made you play 1/3 of that 2nd activity, and then swapped to a new one, only to return to where you left off in the first activity with no sense of progress, accomplishment, or the build up of excitement. Update: The game now has an op...

It's a really fun party game with little minigames similar to some of those you'd find in Mario Party. The point of each one is to get as much treasure as possible. There are 4 characters now (at the start of Early Access) with a variety of colors to choose from. It's still in development but plays great and the visuals are fantastic! Basically how the game plays out is you play a minigame, but partway through it, you switch to another one. If you die in one minigame, you are out of that one but will still keep playing in the other ones. There will sometimes appear a really big treasure idol that's worth a ton so it's worth trying to get your hands on. You can play Local, With Friends (this is how you can play with your buddies), and Online with other random people. The matches can be longer or quick but are usually around 5-10 minutes on average. Overall, a ton of fun and easy to get into! Also the devs are awesome and very quick to respond to questions about the game! I would high...

It seems that no one is actively playing this game anymore, but it's still tons of fun to play with friends, both at home and online.

Fun party game with more than 10 different regimes. Online is empty, but you can play with bots (which behave sometimes rly strange sometimes) or with ppl via remote play. It's cheap, so don't expect much

This is a bad game. I recommend you buy it as you can write a bad review. Let me explain... I launched the game on a cold windy night, I changed the aspect ratio/resolution because wtf why was it 4:10? A loud noise could be heard, the menu man was speaking randomly. It was too loud, the music was just too loud for my sensitive ears. I changed the volume from 100% to 2% and I launched a session where my friend joined me. I went to the toilet and came back to the game auto-launching? I wasn't ready! We played the first 2 minigames which lasted about 2 minutes total, where we both realised we didn't know what we were doing as the controls were not usual controls. I hit escape hoping to look at the controls as normally games have an escape menu with options, controls etc. but it only allowed me to continue the game or go to main menu. I clicked to go to main menu and a loud shout frightened me and I hit the quit button at the bottom by mistake! Fight or flight took over and I guess I fle...

You get what you pay for and this really didn't cost a lot... Pros - Some of the characters are designed okay - Was genuinely surprised it didn't crash at any point Cons - Sometimes levels just wont load and everyone dies - Some weapons don't seem to exist and just wont show up when you select them - Gameplay has little to no variation - Bots just kinda give up after a while - Launches in letterbox mode for some reason

If you have a few friends to play with, you can get at least an hour or two of fun out of this game, BUT you should be aware that there are some issues. If you're planning to play by yourself (including online), probably give it a pass - although I didn't try. Given the mixed reviews my friends and I really weren't expecting much, but we got it cheap on sale and were pleasantly surprised that we did actually have some solid fun with it, if only for a little while. Turns out that trying to grab all the treasure and then beating more treasure out of your friends while dodging hazards is a pretty good time. We played with it set to both Linear and Party Mode, by the way. On the other hand, some glaring issues were present. People sometimes get disconnected, and when they rejoin (which is at least possible) they're stuck as a ghost until the entire match is over. Matches don't go on too long, but it's still painful. As mentioned in other reviews, one of the minigames takes place on a m...

Worst game I've played in a long while. Almost no diversity to the game modes, the AI is bugged like crazy(to the point where they sometimes just stand still), the game is insanely repetitive(literally played EVERYTHING the game had to offer in 30 minutes), the key mechanic where players that have "lost" can come back as invincible ghosts is awful and unbalanced(literally results in losing almost all rewards for winning first place sometimes). Awful game

Finally got around to playing this game with a volunteer in my friends list. I foiund it rather fun and enjoyable, although the minigames were too few and far between. I'm thinking if we got more players online, we'd probably get more minigames. This is definitely one for Markiplier, Bob, Wade, and JackSepticEye to play on their channels. This is the kind of multiplayer game that's right up their alley! If anyone wants to play this, don't forget to notify me. I'd love to play this again.
