Cleo - a pirate's tale is a retro pixel art pirate adventure game developed by Christoph Schultz. The game is inspired by classic LucasArts adventure games and old Zelda games. The game's protagonist is Cleo, a 14-year-old girl who lives a repetitive life with her father in a bar. She finds a pirate logbook and sees a ghost that gives her a mysterious hint. Her boring life is turned upside down as she embarks on a dangerous adventure in a world of lies, deceit, greed, and bad breath - the world of pirates. Most of them are looking for the same thing: The Treasure of Eternal Memory.

The game features a mini-game called Kraken Fodder, a card and dice game that takes about 5 minutes to play. The game is about destroying your opponents' card deck with cannonballs and is taken seriously among fishermen and pirates. Throughout the game, Cleo has to play this card game against a few NPCs. The game was successfully funded on Kickstarter in 2020, and the release is planned for late 2021 with full voice acting in English and German. The game promises to offer a lot of nostalgic flair, humor, and a linear story that will keep players engaged.
