What's New
Thank you for playing The Past Within, we fixed some bugs in this new version!
About this app
Note: The Past Within is a co-op only game. Both players need to own a copy of the game on their own device (mobile, tablet or computer), as well as a way to communicate with each other. Play together with a friend or find a partner on our official Discord server!
The past and future cannot be explored alone! Team up with a friend and piece together the mysteries surrounding Albert Vanderboom. Communicate what you see around you to help one another solve various puzzles and explore the worlds from different perspectives!
The Past Within is the first co-op only point-and-click adventure set in the mysterious world of Rusty Lake.
Features:
▪ A co-op experience
Play together with a friend, one in The Past, the other in The Future. Work together to solve the puzzles and help Rose set her father’s plan in motion!
▪ Two worlds - Two perspectives
Both players will experience their environments in two different dimensions: 2D as well as in 3D - a first-time experience in the Rusty Lake universe!
▪ Cross-platform
As long as you can communicate with each other, you and your partner of choice can each play The Past Within on your preferred platform: PC, Mac, iOS, Android and (very soon) Nintendo Switch!
▪ Playtime & Replayability
The game contains 2 chapters and has an average play-time of 2 hours. For the full experience, we recommend replaying the game from the other perspective. Plus you can use our replayability feature for a fresh start with new solutions to all puzzles.
User Reviews
I did enjoy it. I love the fact you need someone else to play with to progress thru the puzzles. Although... it is difficult to find someone that isn't expecting you to play through in one sitting or would accept playing over dm instead of the voice chat (some of us have kids and that makes that difficult!!) I can see that voice chat would be faster and more efficient, it's just not feasible for all. Good job Rusty Lake!! can't wait to try the other perspectives
Had lots of fun playing on both butterfly and bee mode! I will say that playing the second time after knowing the puzzles, kinda felt like I was cheating helping out my game partner. Definitely had more fun playing the first time, so I do wish it was a tad different playing the second time around. I will say that I loved the co-op! Super easy to find partners on Discord! I've never delved into the Rusty Lake community, and it was fun to talk with my partners about lore. Excited for the next one!
As always, another excellent addition to the Rusty Lake series. Started playing these way back in the day when they first came out as flash games on sites like Armor Games. Never disappoint. I cannot wait to see what the future holds for this series. Not too difficult but not too easy either. Definitely eerie, not quite creepy, that fine line. I have no one to play with so I did it using my phone and tablet. So if anyone is curious, it works that way and was just as fun. 10/10, would recommend.
Really great! Honestly, it's a lot of fun for a smaller game! And I love how cross compatible it is! I could play on my phone and my fiance could play on his PC. The puzzles were a perfect challenge and we only got stuck once. This game was interesting and exciting and a little creepy. It was creative and worked well how we didn't have to be connected in game to play together. This was a great idea and I'm impressed by this game. Please make more games like this!!
