Highly recommended. I had so much fun playing with my friends that we literally couldn't stop laughing. I don't see much value in the single-player mode unless you're just searching for an entertaining solo parkour experience, but the focus definitely lies on the multiplayer. There are several modi to adjust the difficulty including a time based lava mode or a perma death option. So far I've only played the normal …

A deceptively simple premise makes for a lot of fun with friends. The game on paper sounds very simple. Just climb up while being chained together with some of your friends. In practice though, it's extremely fun and challenging. There are some really good puzzles that require you to take a moment to strategize with your friends to figure out how to overcome them. You'll be distraught and brainstorming when you fall …

Chained Together is the kind of game that tests both your platforming skills and your friendships at the same time. Every climb feels intense because one wrong jump can pull the entire team down, which creates some of the funniest and most chaotic moments I’ve had in co-op gaming. The controls are simple, but the teamwork and timing needed to succeed make every section feel rewarding. It can definitely be …

Don't play with dumb friends, don't play with dumb friends, don't play with dumb friends. Unless you are practicing to be a monk devoid of all feelings of hate, don't play this game with dumb friends.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Seen certain indie games EXPLODE in popularity all the while they have a (obvious to me) AI Generated title screen or main game logo, when it's really evident they have the ability to make one themselves. In this situation I'm talking about Chained Together. I feel as though nobody else noticed.
negative · AI labelView post →Played this with my boyfriend and somehow the hardest part wasn't the game, it was staying patient with each other. A lot of falling, a lot of yelling, and a lot of “WAIT, WAIT, WAIT” followed by both of us falling again. Would absolutely play it again.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Okay real quick thought on Chained Together. Me and my friend hopped into this expecting some casual little puzzle platformer. Wow, we were so wrong. You get chained to another player. Sounds easy enough. But your teammate can ruin everything without even trying. I’d line up a perfect jump, and out of nowhere she just bolts off sideways, yanks me right off the cliff with her. So many stupid deaths that were nobody’s fault yet we still blamed each other anyway. We spent most of our session…

neutral · AI labelView post →Chained Together is pure friendship torture, but in the funniest way possible. So we are looking at a co-op platformer where you’re literally chained to other players, which translates to every jump, mistake, and panic moment is shared. One bad move can drag everyone down, so coordination is everything, and chaos is definitely guaranteed. Although simple in concept, it becomes instantly stressful once things start going wrong. The real challenge isn’t reaching the top of the map, it’s…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Me and a [url=https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561199239669538]homie decided to give this game a try and ended up pulling an all-nighter. We beat it in just over 4 hours and had an absolute blast the whole way through. The best part is that it really requires you to play as a team if you want to beat it. It's a good mix of goofy mistake, crazy clutches and laughing when everything goes wrong. Overall it's a simple concept but it's very fun. Highly recommended!

positive · AI labelView post →Played Chained Together with a friend and quickly established our roles: he stays completely serious and focused like every jump is a military operation, while I'm on the other end laughing so hysterically I can barely breathe or see the screen. The funniest part is that despite all that concentration, we're both equally terrible at the game. He's carefully planning the jump, I'm crying with laughter, and five seconds later we're both falling anyway. And ladies: wear protection. Bladder…
