Time-bending co-op adventure game

The Past Within is a premium adventure game for mobile made by developer Rusty Lake. In this point-and-click title, players will experience a story about a mysterious individual from two perspectives and timelines. They will slowly unravel a narrative that involves both the past and future.

Compared to other point-and-clicks like The Walking Dead or The Wolf Among Us, The Past Within is a game that requires two players to play and experience. This makes the whole experience that much more immersive and relatable as players will actively communicate and work together to solve mysteries.

Past and future

Alber Vanderbloom is one of the most memorable characters in the Rusty Lake series for his twisted nature. In The Past Within, you will be exploring and getting to know more about him and his existence. It's a point-and-click game with a unique co-op twist to it in that it requires two players to move the narrative forward, and is told from dual viewpoints and timelines—past and future.

In this game, each player will experience events from the past and future and communicate with one another. You will exchange vital information with one another to solve puzzles and mysteries in each of your time. It's one of those instances where teamwork is a must to get anywhere in the game. Know a bit more about Vanderbloom and his obsession with extending his life.

Another nice feature of the game is its cross-platform gameplay support. That basically means you can play together regardless of which platform or device you use. There's even some level of replayability that will let you switch places and solve puzzles differently. Just be aware that there is no single-player mode option, so you will always need two people to play.

Jumping through time

If you're a fan of the Rusty Lake games, then The Past Within is an interesting entry to it that focuses on one of its most unsavory characters. Get to know more about Vanderbloom and what makes him tick in this journey through time. The co-op gameplay is a clever twist, though a single-player mode would have been nice. Nevertheless, go check this one out.
