GAMEPLAY Large variety of co-op puzzles
GAMEPLAY Some repeated puzzles outstay their welcome
Though its puzzles are not quite as sharp as its predecessors’, We Were Here Forever provides plenty of co-op fun and finally delves into what’s happening in the world.
GAMEPLAY Great puzzle variety
technical The occassional bug

GAMEPLAY Some satisfying puzzles
GAMEPLAY Puzzle difficulty is all over the shop
We Were Here Forever is a fun, challenging co-op puzzler. There’s enough intrigue in the story to keep you guessing (especially if this is your first foray into the series), but there’s also a huge variance in the puzzle variety and difficulty.

GAMEPLAY The puzzles are well designed and suitably challenging, with a lot of variety and the opportunity to build on your knowledge over time
GAMEPLAY Some of the longer puzzles can start to feel like they’re dragging by the end
As the fourth game in a series, We Were Here Forever is a title that knows what it’s about. The gameplay isn’t particularly flashy, and the story doesn’t feature a series of dramatic set pieces to get your adrenaline up.
