The Past Within

It took me 2 hours to play with my friend. I have no idea how it synced up but we had an amazing time. I reccomend for anyone who is looking for a challenging but fun puzzle game to play with friends!

Been playing it with my girlfriend. It's quite fun as it makes you find effective ways to communicate the information to the other player. It has limited replayability but it's pretty fair for the price. We're going after the achievements now.

short but done well and good for price if you grab it at a discount.

Play "Rusty Lake: Roots" before diving into this one. Or don't, there's really no 'bad' diving board into Rusty Lake games. Only if you play this first, you won't really have the proper sense of guilt to accompany you through the game, bringing back to life a face from the Mount Rushmore of Fratricidal Maniacs. No, it's fine. Play this first, and then 'Roots,' so you can be astonished with the horror of what you've done after it's too late--when ignorance is a defense to help you sleep nights. Unlike me...who knew Albert from 'Roots' and did it anyway. Guilt not a problem for you? Well then, might as well drag a friend along into your crimes against Man and God. (Rose, you are messed up. Dr Who would really give you a stern talking to.) The good news is: there's a future for the Rusty Lake universe past the 1970s. Up until now its sole element was an abandoned home of the late Laura V. killed 12 years before. Now, 1984 with its cassette tapes and 3.5 inch floppies h...

Since I have reviewed other parts of the franchise I will try not to restate here what I wrote there. Pros: This has almost all of the strengths of the other entries in the series Really the lack of challenge is the only one where it doesn't. Along with the white door this is one of the best places to start with these as long as you realize that they get much tougher outside of these two. This works incredibly well for just letting two play a game regardless of distance or how well they know each other in part because it doesn't actually require you to connect to each other or get on each other's friends list or anything. Pretty good variety to puzzles. The 3D genuinely does look and feel really cool and it's great to see some of the classic imagery rendered like that. You don't have to figure out which of the two players want to do past or future because about halfway through it swaps anyway so you do both get to experience both. Does some really interesting things. This brings back ...

Another Rusty lake masterpiece. The Co-op that can be played offline similar to game like "Keep talking and nobody explodes" but with story and several fixed puzzles and solutions. Highly recommended to play with your friend or family member. Also you can technically play it solo but you need guide or walkthrough to do so (you can find it on steam community). But it will not make much sense if you've never finished the game in co-op first time. So you can try play it second time solo with guide if you want to collect remain achievement you miss:) If you love Rusty lake game, you'll love it.

well worth

A verry fun and polished two hour experience. A great way to spend an afternoon with a friend, in person or long distance.

The story in this game made no logical sense, just braindead puzzles.

amazing game
