What each player can do here

P1 · Player 1
  • In this guide's split Player 1 plays Amadeus: he conjures boxes, planks and balls, levitates objects, and in this game can also reverse gravity.
P2 · Players 2–4
  • Player 2 swaps between Pontius (shield that deflects water and shots, a charge, and later a throwing sword) and Zoya (rope arrows for swinging and rope bridges, and arrows that later ricochet).

If your skill levels differ: The campaign runs for 1 to 4 players locally or online, and puzzle difficulty adapts to the number of players.Our suggestionPut the more experienced player on Amadeus, whose objects solve most rooms. How to split the roles
