About We Were Here Together

We Were Here Together drops you and a partner into a cooperative puzzle adventure. After a distress flare awakens you at an Antarctic research base, you must travel across frozen wastelands and infiltrate the haunted medieval Castle Rock.

Armed only with walkie‑talkies, observation and dialogue are your tools. Together you explore eerie locales, solve a series of escape‑room style puzzles, and uncover the dark secret of the Jester while trying to survive the castle’s looming danger.

01 / THE GUIDE

Spine‑tingling story

The narrative begins with an emergency flare and a distress call that pulls you from uneasy dreams. You and a fellow Antarctic explorer set out on a rescue mission that leads to a medieval castle.

As you progress, you uncover a dark history and encounter the malevolent being known only as “the Jester,” whose identity remains a mystery.

  • Pay attention to environmental clues that hint at the castle’s past.
  • Discuss any lore you discover with your partner to keep both minds aligned.

02 / THE GUIDE

Walkie‑talkie communication

Each player receives a walkie‑talkie, making voice communication the sole method to share information. Describing surroundings accurately is essential for progress.

The game requires both players to have a working PC‑compatible microphone and an internet connection, emphasizing real‑time verbal coordination.

  • Use concise, specific language when describing objects.
  • Confirm that your partner heard and understood each instruction before acting.

Puzzle‑packed escape rooms

The core gameplay consists of digital escape‑room style puzzles that demand observation and teamwork. Solving each puzzle unlocks new areas and story beats.

Puzzles are designed for two minds to think alike, requiring both players to exchange information and coordinate actions.

  • Break complex puzzles into smaller steps and discuss each step aloud.
  • Keep track of solved elements to avoid redundant attempts.

04 / THE GUIDE

Mysterious locales

Players explore three main settings: the expedition base camp, frozen Antarctic valleys, and the sinister Castle Rock. Each locale offers distinct visual and auditory atmosphere.

The environments shift from icy wastelands to a dark medieval citadel, reinforcing the game’s contrast between cold isolation and looming dread.

  • Take note of unique landmarks in each area to aid navigation.
  • Listen for ambient sounds that may hint at hidden objects.

05 / THE GUIDE

Co‑op only multiplayer

We Were Here Together is strictly co‑op; both players must be online simultaneously. The game supports cross‑platform multiplayer, allowing Windows and macOS users to play together.

Features such as Steam Achievements, Trading Cards, Cloud saves, and Family Sharing are available, but they do not affect core gameplay.

  • Verify both players have stable internet before starting.
  • Check that each system meets the platform requirements (Windows or macOS).
