At a glance

We Were Here is a free-to-play cooperative puzzle adventure for two players, set in a fictional castle in a frozen wasteland. The pair are separated: one player is confined to a secluded area while the other explores the castle. They rely on voice communication through a walkie-talkie to exchange clues and solve puzzles, and each player has a different experience of the game. A working PC-compatible microphone is required for both players. The game is described as a pilot episode in a series of standalone cooperative puzzle adventures. Its castle setting draws inspiration from Castle Rock in Antarctica, and the listed inspirations include Myst, Amnesia: The Dark Descent and real-life escape rooms. Steam lists online co-op and cross-platform multiplayer, along with achievements and support for DualShock and DualSense controllers. Total Mayhem Games developed and published it. It released in 2017 for Windows and macOS.
