What Was Lost

What Was Lost is a first-person puzzle game for two players, online through Steam. One of you plays Ben, in the family house as it was. The other plays Lily, in the same house years later. You can't see each other's rooms. A clock that still has its hands on Ben's side is bare on Lily's. A drawer that's locked for one of you is open for the other. Most puzzles come down to one person describing something and the other finding it, so you'll talk a lot.

In Early AccessChapters 1 to 6: the front hall, the kitchen and garden, the library, the bedroom, the attic and basement, and the conservatory. A pair usually takes about four hours. More chapters are coming in free updates. Online co-op for two with push-to-talk voice chat built in. There is no split-screen and no matchmaking, so bring a friend. There is no combat and no timer, and you can't fail a puzzle.
