Some friendships survive anything.
Others struggle to survive ten minutes of someone explaining a puzzle incorrectly.
And if you and your best friend belong to the second category, there’s a new game that might put your teamwork to the test.
We Were Here Tomorrow, the latest entry in Total Mayhem Games’ cooperative puzzle adventure series, has arrived with a mystery that two players must solve together.
The story begins when two explorers find themselves trapped inside a mysterious facility belonging to Norček Industries.
They’re somewhere beneath the Antarctic ice, with limited memories of how they got there and plenty of unanswered questions waiting for them.
Their mission is to investigate the facility, understand what happened and find a way forward.
Sounds manageable, right?
There’s one small problem. You can’t solve everything alone.
The game uses asymmetrical cooperative gameplay, meaning the two players don’t necessarily experience the same things.
One person might discover information that the other needs to solve a puzzle, while the second player could have the answer to a completely different problem.
Neither person has the full picture.
So communication becomes part of the gameplay itself.
You’ll need to describe what you see, listen carefully and work together instead of trying to become the main character.
Naturally, that also creates opportunities for some very entertaining misunderstandings.
The title continues the We Were Here series’ focus on cooperation, mystery and puzzle-solving.
It launched on Steam on October 20.
For players who enjoy escape rooms, teamwork challenges and games that are better with a friend, this is one to know about.
Now the only question is whether your duo can communicate long enough to escape.
