About the Game



Armed with nothing but a guide book, you and your teammates must collaborate and tackle intricate puzzles to launch rockets in this exhilaratingly stressful co-operative game. Not for the faint of heart, teamwork and communication are your keys to success!

Assemble your team however you like and work together to launch the rockets. The campaign has various missions designed to be played by 2 to 5+ people effectively. Missions cover a wide variety of launch procedures from pre-launch through to lift-off, flight and orbit. There are different puzzles for different missions at different stages of a launch.

The 130+ page guide book can be downloaded for free by your teammates (at rocket.guide) and includes instructions and other cryptic details for all of the puzzles in the game.

This game is hard. Super hard, in fact. The challenge is in knowing what to do and being able to actually perform the operation on time. Communicating with your teammates, learning iteratively, and quick thinking under pressure are all key. We believe in you.

Other features include:

  • Local co-operating gaming (only one person in the group needs to buy in order to play).
  • 20 mission campaign consisting of dynamically generated puzzles and 130+ page guide.
  • Tutorial video to assist you in getting up to speed.
  • Arguably a stress test of friendship.

  • A new tutorial video to help get your party started.
  • Epic remastered music. Soundtrack that stress.
  • Brand new sound effects and voiceover.
