About the Game

Inspired by the works of Hazelight Studios, Kin Tandem is a two player adventure about learning to put your different skills together.

Barsa, the beefy melee brawler, can charge forward to clear a path and use her hook to quickly reposition herself and...

Her younger brother Manu! Using his collection of spells he can fight from a distance, protect his sister, and augment her abilities.

Co-op at its core

Solve puzzles, defeat enemies, and work in tandem in this split-screen adventure built for two!

Combine your Skills

Discover new ways to use Barsa's brawling and Manu's magic together as you climb your way through the temple. Manu can climb on Barsa’s shoulder to literally combine their powers and reach new paths.

Break the Chains

Join the feline family on their journey to find their missing father. Along the way take down a dastardly cult, shatter their magical chains, and bring life back to the jungle.
