We Were Here Together Reviews

This is the 3rd game in the franchise and while there have been some improvements they still have failed to implement a decent save system. We are currently at stage 7 which is comprised of at least 3 puzzles, with the first 2 taking 5 to 10 minutes to complete each, however when you complete either of them, if the game crashes (which it has 3 times now) after you've completed the first 2 sections? Tough luck. Puzzles are rewarding when you figure them out, and given their design even if you already know how to solve them in theory it still takes trial and error to get it right, so if the game crashes after finishing 2 puzzles, basically fuck you lets waste another 20 minutes of your time to get back to where you were and hope it doesnt' happen again. We endured this twice, and on the third attempt while solving the 3rd puzzle the games servers disconnected and softlocked our progress as I was sending the cart to my partner who's client never got it when it reconnected, meaning if we want to attempt to progress we would have now wasted an hour of our time. We are playing in the same house on the same LAN, it makes no sense to need stable serverside connections for this, and even without that, why can we not just have a save file we can access like any other game developed in the last 20 years? It's infuriating.

this switches it up enough to make it more fun, it's nice actually being together via gameplay before the separation and the puzzles here range from easy & quick to "ex-fucking-cuse me?" which is pretty in-line for this series. definitely not worth $13 but it's a fun time.

This game is broken in many ways including breaking so the puzzle was unsolvable, making me and a friend get stuck on a level for 45 minutes. There are probably two enjoyable puzzles with enough difficulty and the others are either incredibly one sided or simple as putting the square shape in the square shape hole. The story is incredibly bland and at this point played out terribly for a climax. Do not buy!

this is good, grab a friend and play through it. will test communication and teamwork (does not get infuriating)

Great game, does a great job of testing our communication skills.

As all of the games of the series, it is an enjoyable game. However, We Were Here Too had much better puzzle designs. Still, most of the puzzles are great, while being original and playing the game at the other side feels great.

I played the original We Were Here with my friend and somehow I was able to finish it without encountering any bugs, the second time I played it with someone else, a game-breaking bug hindered our journey and we couldn't finish the game. Now I started playing this game with a different friend for the first time and it works well for the first few chapters until we get to the one with the tesla coils. These bum developers have had a bug (since 2019 from what I could find) where one of the fuses that you NEED to finish the puzzle doesn't exist. After failing this TIMED challenge multiple times, unable to figure out what the game is wanting to do, we find out about this little bug and see people who have talked to the developers on discord who have said they know about the bugs and they don't do anything about them. So in conclusion, these complete tools knowingly made buggy game after buggy game, refusing to go back and fix them so people can actually enjoy the products they purchased, all so they can continue to focus on making more slop that doesn't work so they can churn a couple more bucks out of whoever, like me, didn't realize these guys are total POS, ripoff, scam artist, snake oil salesmen developers I'm gonna spread the word to anyone that will listen that they should not purchase any games from these bums

Some of the puzzles were enjoyable, unfortunately they were outweighed by the bad ones. Combine that with the fact that we encountered a bug where certain aspects of a puzzle did not spawn and we were left wandering around trying to find a solution that didn't exist for 45 minutes before giving up and discovering the bug.

This game is not bad at all, but we met several bugs, which didn't allow us move forward. It solved by restarting mission, but my save file was crashed on the last quest. 10/10

TL:DR : Great game. You should play, bring a pal. Complete review: I think I've said enough in my other reviews, this is a great game and I couldn't possibly recommend it enough. If you have a buddy you NEED to play this game together, and even if you don't have someone to play with you could always join the Discord server and make a new friend there. This is the third game in the series and is EVEN BETTER than the previous two and I can only imagine and hope that the next game surpasses this one in quality and content. There's not much to complain about, the puzzles are simple enough to understand pretty easily but also challenging, good work there. But, some clues aren't very clear and are a little confusing yes I agree that better communication can make it more straightforward and that is a challenge for you and your buddy to learn how to work around but the game could have given some better clues, that said is nothing that is going to ruin your experience, the frustration and the yelling lol actually creates a fun and cute moment after the conclusion of the puzzle where you and your friend will share a good laugh so I don't even mind the confusing clues anymore. Also just a little peeve of mine, nothing that diminishes your experience... But da** Total Mayhem. You guys could've hiden so many secrets in this game, little easter eggs, secret rooms maybe even secret puzzles for secret achievements :(
