Bound Together

Bound Together is a first-person cooperative puzzle game for two players. The two players are separated and each sees clues the other cannot: one finds the mechanism, the other the document that explains it, so every puzzle can only be solved by describing what you see, by proximity voice chat up close or by walkie-talkie from afar. Codes, paths and combinations are randomized every match. The game includes a prologue and three chapters, from an underground dungeon and a forge to an abandoned office backup system and a quarry where heavy objects must be moved together with real physics. Online and LAN play, English and Italian. One night, siblings Elias and Nora wake up in their dark house and follow a strange column of light to an old castle. Elias falls through a hidden trapdoor into a prison cell, while Nora is locked inside the archive behind a closing gate. Separated by stone walls and connected only by their voices and a pair of walkie-talkies, they must share what each of them can see to escape the dungeon, a forge, a series of strange laboratories, an abandoned office backup system and a deep stone quarry, slowly discovering what is really behind the place that trapped them.
