Pretty good. It's really similar to We Were Here on PC, and I think, Android needs more CO-OP games like these. But one thing is that, from atleast the demo, the guy from the future doesn't have much to do, or move around except using the monitor. I think he needs some more exploration. I've played every Rusty Lake game to date, and this one is pretty cool.

I really liked this, but there was a glitch in the future portion where the screen goes dark randomly. The first time it happened I was trying to put the floppy in the computer and after I took care of the darkened screen the floppy disk item disappeared. Had to restart the game and click through to get back to that scene. It happened a couple more times but nothing to inconvenient happened because of it. Definitely look into it, 'cause it can give you a hard time if it's during a cut-scene

I'm such a huge fan of the Rusty Lake series but admittedly the puzzles sometimes are a huge head scratcher and I absolutely hate peeking behind the curtain. At first I didn't like the idea of it being two players but it wasn't hard to hit up a few friends who were gamers to get them to play....it also keeps me in check when I get frustrated trying to solve certain puzzles. Give it a chance....odds are if you have a phone, you have someone in your contacts who will be down to play!
