Overview
We Were Here is an asymmetric co-op puzzle game for two players, developed and published by Total Mayhem Games and released in 2017. It is the first entry in the series, and it is free.
Story and world
The two players play explorers lost in Antarctica, who end up separated inside a mysterious castle, Castle Rock. One plays the Explorer, the other the Librarian.
Gameplay
The two separated players can only communicate by walkie-talkie, and have to describe what they see to each other to solve the puzzles: one has the mechanism to operate in front of them, the other has the clues to know how to go about it.
The concept is excellent and creates genuinely memorable communication moments.
Graphics and music
The game is technically rough.
Verdict
Short and technically rough, but free and perfect for trying the formula out.
