Compared to other point-and-clicks like
The Walking Dead
or
The Wolf Among Us
, The Past Within is a game that
requires
two players to play
and experience. This makes the whole experience that much more
immersive and relatable
as players will actively
communicate and work together
to solve mysteries.
Past and future
Alber Vanderbloom is one of the most memorable characters in the
Rusty Lake series
for his twisted nature. In The Past Within, you will be exploring and getting to know more about him and his existence. It's a point-and-click game with a
unique co-op twist
to it in that it requires two players to move the narrative forward, and is told from dual viewpoints and timelines—past and future.
In this game, each player will experience events from the past and future and communicate with one another. You will exchange
vital information
with one another to
solve puzzles and mysteries
in each of your time. It's one of those instances where teamwork is a must to get anywhere in the game. Know a bit more about Vanderbloom and his obsession with
extending his life
.
Another nice feature of the game is its
cross-platform gameplay support
. That basically means you can play together regardless of which platform or device you use. There's even some level of replayability that will let you switch places and solve puzzles differently. Just be aware that there is
no single-player mode
option, so you will always need two people to play.
Jumping through time
If you're a fan of the Rusty Lake games, then The Past Within is an interesting entry to it that focuses on one of its
most unsavory characters
. Get to know more about Vanderbloom and what makes him tick in this journey through time. The co-op gameplay is
a clever twist
, though a single-player mode would have been nice. Nevertheless, go check this one out.
