Olive Raiders

Olive Raiders is a narrative action game set in post-unification Southern Italy, where fading nobles, ex-priests, bandits and bounty hunters struggle for power in a land shaped by history and myth. You play as Veronica, a Russian noblewoman who runs a casino in Naples and works as a bounty hunter. With her eccentric gang, you take contracts, make morally grey choices and uncover conspiracies tied to the ruins of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies.

Characters and setting

You can play as Veronica, Aloisio the priest, Totonno the brigand or Francesco the noble. The game features stylized versions of Naples, Paestum, Salerno and rural Southern villages, reimagined as a lawless frontier.

Contracts and choices

Missions let you work for Italians, Borbonics or both sides. Branching dialogue brings you into contact with rebels, clergy, aristocrats and outlaws, while your decisions shape your loyalties.

Combat and activities

Cinematic third-person gunplay draws on Spaghetti Westerns, with shootouts and duels. Locations also hold secrets and activities, including casino dancing and cannon testing.

Music

The original soundtrack blends Morricone-esque cues with Southern Italian folk.
