    I see that I did claim it with GwG, but never looked into it. Looks interesting though, so I'll probably give it a go sometime

    I only played the first one thanks to GwG and really enjoyed it - but not the Walkie-Talkie mechanic.

    Being co-op then the games don't interest me, I have no one else to play them with so they're not something I feel any interest in playing. I prefer solo play as I don't have to rely on others that way and can work at my own pace.

    I believe it is rather obvious that co-op games aren't designed for people without gaming friends.

    Really loved the experience when I picked it up on GwG - refreshing to have a game that forced dialog between players to progress. The walkie talkie mechanic was also a nice twist, to force more organised discussion, as opposed to one player just taking over others! 😂

    I've got gaming friends but they tend to be more interested in games like GTA and COD, never anything like this so asking them to help me out is a waste of time. Someone from this site did offer a couple of years ago but didn't bother to appear so I've not bothered since.
    Just another unplayed game on the pile.

    Picked up the first with GwG and played with a friend. Now, whenever a new title is released, we make plans to play through them. We're both really busy with our daily lives, so it's really nice to make a plan to get together and play some really good co-op puzzle games. We call them our "date nights."

    After playing this with Gold I bought Too and Together for me and a friend to play through. Really excited for Forever.

    I've had We Were Here downloaded and ready to go in case of a quick achievement/completion emergency for years. I didn't realize it was co-op so I will probably delete it now. Who has friends in 2021? Not me.

    Might actually make a gaming session to get it done..
    Edit: in 24 hours from now (this time tomorrow) I'll be available for 8-10 hours. Gaming session is up.

    Been wanting to finish the first one since it was available with Gold, anyone who wants to finish it send me a message.

    Ah yes, I fully understand the predicament! I personally wouldn't want to play a game like this with someone I didn't know, I'd prefer to go play a single player game as well.

    I may manage to convince the wife in to play this with me, but only time will tell...

    Would like to get it done, not sure when I'll next be online in regards of the console, haven't had much focus for gaming since last month when I finished Lego Marvel Avengers. Maybe this afternoon UK time or tonight, UK time.

    Online only. Couch wouldn't really work with the "walkie-talkie mechanic" they talked about.

    I always try to check out the games with gold titles if I haven't heard of them. I remember this one seemed peculiar and I love puzzle games, so I got my brother to download it too and we had a blast playing it. I bought the other two games in the series after some time and game share them with my brother, but we have only completed one. Still, great games!

    Glad to see there’s some more information on this one. I’ve enjoyed the first 3 games with my Co-Op buddy and it looks like from the trailer we’re going to be playing as characters from the 1st and 2nd games.
    Should be interesting.

    Now let’s hope they actually clear up their actual plot, since the 3rd game was just a nonsensical mess with diabolical put on accents
