We Were Here Forever

Total Mayhem Games | Released May 2022

You and your friend are trapped in the realm of Castle Rock with no way out - were you betrayed, or simply not that clever? Work together to explore and solve puzzles in this mysterious Antarctic adventure. Be aware, nothing is what it seems - there are dark secrets hidden in the shadows. Will you be able to escape?

We Were Here Forever now available on all platforms with crossplay!

Try the other games in the series: there is much to discover in Castle Rock, as you’ll see in We Were Here, We Were Here Too, and We Were Here Together.

Every game in the We Were Here Series is a standalone co-op adventure – the stories are connected but you don’t need to play them in order.

Feature list

Two player co-op: the puzzles you encounter take two to solve - you both have a role to play! Communicate via walkie-talkies, and act as each other’s eyes and ears
Connect through experience: when you find yourself in sudden danger, will you freeze, or can you keep cool and explain things clearly to your friend - before your time runs out…
On the edge of your seat: be part of a thrilling adventure in the lively world of Castle Rock as you and your friend take on the ancient powers aligned against you
Spine-tingling story: there is much to discover… and much to fear - you’ve met the Jester, but is he even the most powerful being within the walls of Castle Rock?

Play We Were Here Forever now!

NOTE: This game is co-op only. It requires both players to have a working PC-compatible microphone and an internet connection.
