The Past Within

Important: The Past Within is a cooperative game only. Each player must have the game on their own device (mobile, tablet, or computer) and a means of communication. Join forces with a friend or find a partner on our official Discord server!

The past and future are intertwined, and you'll need a partner to unravel the enigma surrounding Albert Vanderboom. Share your observations with each other to overcome various challenges and explore the worlds from different vantage points!

The Past Within is the first cooperative point-and-click adventure set in the enigmatic world of Rusty Lake.

Both players will experience their surroundings in two distinct dimensions: 2D and 3D - a unique experience in the Rusty Lake universe!
▪ Cross-platform compatibility
As long as you can communicate, you and your partner can play The Past Within on your preferred platform: PC, Mac, iOS, Android, and (soon) Nintendo Switch!
▪ Gameplay duration & replay value
The game consists of 2 chapters and takes approximately 2 hours to complete. For the full experience, we recommend replaying the game from the alternative perspective. You can also use our replay feature to restart with new puzzle solutions.
