Description

Note: The Past Within is a co-op only game. Both players need to own a copy of the game on their own device (mobile, tablet or computer), as well as a way to communicate with each other. Play together with a friend or find a partner on our official Discord server!

The past and future cannot be explored alone! Team up with a friend and piece together the mysteries surrounding Albert Vanderboom. Communicate what you see around you to help one another solve various puzzles and explore the worlds from different perspectives!

The Past Within is the first co-op only point-and-click adventure set in the mysterious world of Rusty Lake.

Features:

▪ A co-op experience
Play together with a friend, one in The Past, the other in The Future. Work together to solve the puzzles and help Rose set her father’s plan in motion!
▪ Two worlds - Two perspectives
Both players will experience their environments in two different dimensions: 2D as well as in 3D - a first-time experience in the Rusty Lake universe!
▪ Cross-platform
As long as you can communicate with each other, you and your partner of choice can each play The Past Within on your preferred platform: PC, Mac, iOS, Android and (very soon) Nintendo Switch!
▪ Playtime & Replayability
The game contains 2 chapters and has an average play-time of 2 hours. For the full experience, we recommend replaying the game from the other perspective. Plus you can use our replayability feature for a fresh start with new solutions to all puzzles.

I played this with my parents and it was great! The puzzles may have been a bit simpler than usual but it makes sense since it's a co-op game. Rusty Lake did not disappoint with this story and the unnerving atmosphere was also present!

habe nach drei Jahren endlich genug playpunkte, um es nochmal zu kaufen! Die Notwendigkeit für zweiten Spieler erschließt sich mir seit NES-Zeiten gar nicht...freue mich aber drauf es endlich zu spielen, wenn auch doppelt, ähm also auf Smartphone und Tablett parallel, mit mir selbst ... Bitte bei sowas auch eine Singleplayer-Version veröffentlichen, bitte bitte!
