Fun demo like game definitely try it and you will be hooked to play the whole series

Jan. 2025

My best friend & I have played the entire We Were Here series, and him & I have loved every single one! They get increasingly more challenging & longer with each new game, which was awesome! Might drive you nuts if you can’t communicate well with your co-op partner though, you need one another from start to finish! We have tried to find similar series that are just as good and nothing has even come remotely close! We are going to run through them all again simply because we miss the game play! HIGHLY RECOMMEND if you are looking for a CO-OP puzzle series!

Jan. 2025

Great series for a casual co-op experience! The games to follow were a bit better in my opinion but this game laid the foundation for such a fun series to come about. It was pretty easy from an achievement hunter/completionist perspective as well! For a free game, I think this is certainly worth giving a go with a friend.

I just played this with a buddy. This was a lot of fun. I've never played a game quite like it. Interacting with objects can be a little wonky, especially with a controller. But the puzzles were really neat and test your skills of observation and communication.

Played the game with the wife. Had a fight because I lost my temper. We eventually beat the game. Might have affected the future of our marriage, but had fun regardless. 10/10 would recommend.
