The Past Within Lite 12+

Two player game is fun

It’s great to play in the Rusty lake world with two people - but the gameplay is a little too simple for us - certainly compared to the original one player rusty lake games.

Thank you for your feedback! 😊 We kept it more simple so the players would not be stuck for too long on one puzzle. We hope you will find the final version of the game a little more difficult and more fun. 🛶

Gutted

Why does this have to be two player, the whole point of an adventure game is to switch off from daily interactions and chillax 😂 I tried convincing my other half on another game and we both bought it but he soon lost interest. Love rusty lake and absolutely gutted it’s two player. I would definitely have bought it otherwise.

Edit: thank you for your quick reply I have updated my rating to 5 stars as let’s be honest rusty lake are the best whether 1 player or 2. I actually downloaded the lite version on both my iPad and iphone and played both halves, which was fun! So I may do this with the full game too if I don’t have a partner 😃 Love you Rusty Lake.

Hello! Sorry we didn't meet your expectations. It's unfortunate that you are not able to play with your SO. Maybe you could find a partner for the game on our Discord server? Otherwise, there are more single player games coming soon, so don't be too disappointed. 🤗

Concept flawed

Before I start this review I absolutely love Rusty Lake games and have played them all! I thought I would try the light version as I needed to rope in another player! I asked my wife to try it. She was totally lost in the Past and I ended up taking her phone off her to show her what to do. She said it was stupid and boring and does not want to play full game. So how am I supposed to play the full version. I appreciate you have set up a find a partner scheme. But playing with a stranger in a different country with time difference and no way of communicating with them? Unless you can convince me how I can make the full game work, I will have to give it a miss. So disappointed.
