A time-bending puzzle adventure built for two
Tick Tock: A Tale for Two is a premium adventure game built entirely around cooperation. You and another player must rely on each other’s clues to solve cryptic puzzles and escape a strange clockwork world. It’s a short yet immersive experience that blends mystery, psychological tension, and classic escape-room storytelling.
Locked in the clockmaker’s world
In Tick Tock: A Tale for Two, you and your partner must work together to escape the mysterious clockwork world. Each of you holds only half the information, so communication is key. Describe what you see, solve puzzles, explore old rooms, read notes, and uncover what brought you there.
Each challenge requires teamwork—both in local co-op and online co-op play—as the clues are split across your screens. That said, there’s no single-player mode, so you’ll always need a partner to play. Its average two-and-a-half-hour runtime also makes it relatively short, but it stays engaging until the end.
Compact but clever
To sum up, Tick Tock: A Tale for Two keeps things simple but clever. It’s not about fast reflexes or complex mechanics but about working together and figuring things out through clear communication. While brief, it offers a satisfying co-op experience that’s easy to pick up yet hard to forget once you’ve solved its last puzzle.
