About the Game

Offered as sacrifice, you play as a character desperately seeking escape from a dark presence lurking within the catacombs. Trapped below, danger lurks in a world frozen by fear.

With the help of a mysterious guide, you’re not alone on your journey. To survive this perilous trial, use your wits to platform, swing, and sneak as you endure treacherous forces at every turn.

Originally created as a submission for the Brackey’s Game Jam 2022.2 and ranked 14th place, the short and sweet game of 'We’re Tethered Together' has been redeveloped from the ground up.

Will you escape... or become another offering?
