I'm reminded vaguely of Terry Cavanagh's At A Distance, a co-op puzzler which Jim and Alec stumbled through in 2011. I predict a whole lot of fun as players try to describe mystic symbols to each other. You have in-game walkie-talkies to chat with each other, mind, which will surely be helpful as it turns out the solutions to puzzles rely upon information the other player sees. One player is the 'Librarian', stuck in one small area, while the 'Explorer' roams around the rest. So! You and your chum find yourselves in a castle in an icy wasteland, one full of cryptic clues. Separated in different parts of the castle but keeping in contact with walkie-talkies, pairs must pool their clues and get puzz-puzz-puzzling. Perhaps you'd like to join a buddy in an abandoned castle for a spot of thunking in free co-op first-person puzzler We Were Here.

Personally, I believe it's people expressing subconscious desire to be trapped away from everything forever in a box in space/the future/a zombie apocalypse, but I'm no Dr.

Gameplay is largely tied to the exploration of the environment and the solution of complex puzzles that only two users can do at once.Puzzling with pals can be a lark, which I suppose may be why escape rooms are all the rage nowadays.

Characters will not be able to fight opponents, as they have no weapons.

Gamers will interact with each other using voice messages - they have a walkie-talkie for this.

An interesting and very intricate storyline.

A bleak atmosphere that perfectly captures all the challenges faced by explorers of the Arctic Circle.

GameplayĪmong the main gameplay features of the survival simulator We Were Here Together is worth mentioning: Soon it becomes clear that this place was not what the scientists thought - some really strange things happen here and some horrible creature lives here, which they nicknamed 'Jester'. Suddenly they observe a flare in the sky, which means that the unit is in trouble and asks for help. The protagonist and his partner are at base camp, while the rest of the group has gone on a research mission. This is where the polar station is located, where scientists study the environment. ReviewĮvents take place in one of the coldest places on the planet, Antarctica.

We Were Here Together is at first glance a classic survival simulator, but it differs from the others in that here the gameplay is designed exclusively for co-op and players must communicate with each other using a microphone.
