About This Game

As we explore these frozen wastes, misfortune strikes once again. Through the fierce blizzard, an emergency flare lights the sky, followed by a cry for help over the radio - broken, dying... No one else will be able to come to their rescue. But can we make it back - together?

Summary: IGDB

Story

We Were Here Together is a cooperative first-person puzzle adventure for two players, set in a frozen and forbidding corner of Antarctica. The pair take the roles of explorers stationed at a remote research base, drawn into a chilling mystery that leads them out of their camp and toward the eerie, long-abandoned fortress of Castle Rock. Separated for much of their journey and often unable to see one another, the two must rely entirely on a pair of walkie-talkies to communicate, describing what they see and coordinating their actions to overcome a series of intricate puzzles. Their path winds...
