Description

Embark on a puzzle solving adventure in which you and a partner must prove you can communicate and work together to escape the haunted Castle Rock.

It all begins with an emergency flare lighting up the sky and a distress call waking you from uneasy dreams. Your fellow Antarctic explorers are in trouble, and the two of you left at base camp must work together to launch a rescue mission. If only you knew what you were getting into…

From the research base camp you’ll need to figure out a way to get to the source of the distress flare. Once you’re through the frozen Antarctic wastes, you'll find yourselves separated inside a medieval castle, facing puzzles, secrets, and dangers! You and your partner start out with nothing but your wits and a walkie-talkie each. Observation, smart communication and teamwork will be the only way to escape from the sinister Castle Rock.

Feature list

  • Spine-tingling story: uncover a dark history, and become closer acquainted with the malevolent being known only as ‘the Jester’. Who, or what, is he?

  • Walkie-talkie: you must communicate to progress – find out just how good you are at describing and explaining your surroundings

  • Puzzle packed: work together to solve this captivating digital escape room

  • Mysterious locales: explore the expedition base camp, frozen Antarctic valleys, and the sinister Castle Rock itself

NOTE: This game is co-op only. It requires both players to have a working PC-compatible microphone and an internet connection.

Talk

Your voice will have to lead the way.

You and your expedition partner must traverse the Antarctic wasteland and infiltrate an ominous medieval castle. All you start with is a pair of walkie-talkies – will you be able to work together on the same wavelength?

Solve

Two minds will have to think alike.

Immerse yourself in an intriguing cooperative experience as you and your partner puzzle your way through a series of thrilling situations. Discover brand new environments and mysteries, together.

Escape

We were not alone...

Darkness has engulfed the once magnificent Castle Rock and its surroundings. Can you discover the truth behind the grim fate of the fallen citadel and make it out alive... or will the original inhabitants catch you on your way out?

What’s new?

For returning fans of the We Were Here series, this time you can expect even more puzzles, longer play time, new mechanics, and discover more of the story behind the Antarctic expedition and Castle Rock itself...

I have given this a thumbs down because there is no indication that it involves a lot of colour puzzles. Sadly after the 2 hour money back from steam which i think is utter bullsh!t. No colour blind mode either. :-(

Not as fun as the previous two games. One person does 90% of the puzzles, the other "assists" 10% of the time. Obtuse puzzle design, could be better.

Really great game! The most difficult part was, by far, getting the pipes right. That specific room was more of a torture device rather than a mind exercise, we do not even know how we got through it, but we kept going

spoilers ahead. and heads up this comes from a couple who love puzzle games. tbh this is definitely the weakest we were here game. several puzzles were a dumb choice for what is meant to be a collaborative puzzle game.

First two games were really nice, but this is another level. The story is better from the previous part, puzzles are even better and the environment you are in and gameplay are great! Can't wait to play the newest
