On the lookout for new puzzle testers for We Were Here Together!


Hello Antarctic explorers! We are looking for more people to give feedback on our early versions of new puzzles for the next game in the series: We Were Here Together. The testing will be done between April 5th and May 3rd. If you think that you and a friend might be up for it, read on!

How will it work?

We will release a new puzzle every Friday. The first puzzle will be released on the 5th of April at 19:00. The last puzzle will be released on the 3rd of May. Puzzles are fully playable for two people, but not yet polished to the high standard you can expect from us in the final release. When you are selected, we will assign you a single puzzle / area to play in a particular week, based on when you’re available. More time may be granted for testing if we decide a puzzle could benefit from additional testing and feedback.

On top of having the opportunity to see new puzzles develop, testers will get credited in the game with their Steam profile name.The first 100 applicants who fit our requirements will be accepted into the testing program. If you aren’t one of the first 100, don't feel disappointed yet as we might still ask you to join testing in the future if it turns out that we need additional testers.

How can I join?

There has been a lot of interest in testing the game, and therefore we're closing applications for now. Thanks to everyone who has mailed us and you will all receive an answer, but it might take a bit longer than expected due to the volume of requests. Thanks for your patience!

Include the following:
Your Steam profile name.
Your partner’s Steam profile name.
A short explanation of why you two want to join the testing and why you think you could be helpful.
Which weeks (running from Friday to Thursday) you and your partner are available for testing.

Note that, depending on the test, you will spend between 30 minutes and two hours on testing.
After you submit your email we’ll get back to you with more information. You and your partner don’t both need to submit an email, one between you is enough!

Please note that there are certain requirements that will be used to determine who will be selected for puzzle testing.
Requirements:
You have to be able to play the game in at least one of the weeks within the given timeframe.
You have played We Were Here (Too) for at least an hour.
Your Steam profile level is at least level 4.
Your Steam profile is visible to us, so we can check these requirements.
You have to be able to record both video and the audio of your playing session, and send them to us.
You are able to give written feedback to us about your experience playing an early puzzle.
You can communicate with us via our Discord.

You will also be asked to agree to the following NDA:

Non-Disclosure Agreement
In taking part in this early testing, you agree not to share information, screenshots, or video relating to the puzzles you experience. It goes without saying that the magic of the game is figuring out the puzzles with a friend, so we need to control what information is released before the game comes out. We hope you understand and appreciate your cooperation!

Our current testers have been exceptional with their comments and suggestions, and we’re hugely grateful. If you’d like to join them, we look forward to hearing from you!

Visit the expedition base camp for the first time in We Were Here Together, before returning to the sinister Castle Rock once more. The latest game features more backstory hidden within the castle halls. If you haven’t played the original We Were Here yet, it’s free to play on Steam! The three games are all connected, but you can enjoy them in any order. What can you discover about the expedition itself? Is this really just another attempt to map the unknown areas of icy Antarctica, or is something more involved? And… will you be able to escape the jester?
