About the Game

Temple of Sandur is a co-op puzzle adventure set in a lost desert temple where sand itself bends time. Use a mystical hourglass to reshape the world, solve ancient puzzles, and escape the creatures that awaken beneath the dunes.

Play solo or with friends—the temple adapts to both. While every puzzle is built for teamwork, brave explorers can still take on the challenge alone.

Use the power of sand to turn back time, rebuild what’s been lost, and uncover paths that were once buried. Collapsed bridges rise again, walls crumble in reverse, and the temple’s structure shifts in your favor if you know how to control it.

Every puzzle can be solved on your own, but playing together adds new dynamics and unexpected moments of teamwork. Share discoveries, coordinate your actions, or simply experience the temple side by side. Whether solo or co-op, every run through the temple feels different.

The deeper you go, the more it reacts. Footsteps echo, sand stirs, and something starts to move in the dark. Stay quiet, keep your light low, and remember that the temple never forgets those who disturb its peace.
