What is We Were Here Forever like?

Separated in a frozen realm, you describe what you see over walkie-talkie to solve puzzles.

Two prisoners talk over walkie-talkies to solve the puzzles that get them out of their cells and out of the Keep, then keep going through the royal halls, the town of Rockbury, a graveyard and the Foundry while a resistance against the King and a mysterious Jester drive the story. It is co-op only for two, each on their own device, and both need a microphone and an internet connection. Since the console launch in January 2023 PC, PlayStation and Xbox players can team up, and on PlayStation the online needs PlayStation Plus.
