We Were Here

Two players are trapped in a castle in a frozen wasteland, separated into different areas and connected only by a walkie-talkie. They must work together to find a way out.

The players take different roles: one stays among clues in a library-like room, while the other explores the castle and faces room-based challenges. Neither sees the other’s surroundings, so describing what they find and listening carefully are essential.

Puzzles ask the pair to interpret clues, communicate instructions, and coordinate their actions to make progress through the castle. The roles offer different experiences, giving players a reason to try the adventure again from the other side.

Players often enjoy the game’s voice-based cooperation: each person has different information, so clear descriptions and careful listening are central to solving the puzzles. Reviews also commonly describe the confusion and laughter of trying to communicate under pressure, and the shared satisfaction when a solution clicks. Some players criticize the short experience, uneven role involvement, difficult-to-read clues, or sparse checkpoints.
