Death Squared
Description
Death Squared is a cooperative puzzle game for 1, 2 or 4 players, best enjoyed with loved ones who don't mind a little arguing for the greater good. It's quick to pick up and play and one of the few co-op puzzle games where anyone, young and old, can play. No fast reflexes required, just a sharp mind and determination!
Prove your teamwork skills in Death Squared as you solve puzzles together or die trying! Each player needs to guide a robot to a colour-coded goal, but the path to your goal is beset with deadly traps and hazards. Teams of players will need close observation and communication to keep each other alive and discover a solution together.
Complete the main campaign with one or two players, observed and "encouraged" by the dry wit of hapless testing technician David and his artificial assistant Iris. Then take a group into four-player Party Mode for the ultimate teamwork trial! For those that can't get enough, head to the 'Vault' to find extra experiments recommended only for the brave.
Features:
- Every level is a micro-journey of: surprise > discovery > mastery > success
- 80 puzzling levels in the Story mode
- 40 Party levels designed for 4 Players
- 45 Vault Levels (22 for 2 Players, 23 for 4 Players) - tougher challenges for the dedicated player!
- Hats and decals to decorate your bots
- Color-blind mode
- Extra difficulty modifiers for those who laugh in the face of danger, and bombs
- Secrets? Was I supposed to mention those here? No? My bad.

Critics reviews
The Escapist
3.5/5 stars
Puzzle fanatics will enjoy it, even in solo mode. Players looking for some widely-appealing games to play with non-gamer family and friends will definitely find value here, and may discover they're no longer the best player in the room.

8/10
Overall, Death Squared is an entertaining game that has been carefully refined until it can out from the crowds of other indie puzzle games. It's easily recommended for gamers who appreciate the puzzle, platform and party genres individually or when combined together.

3.5/5 stars
Death Squared is a decent co-op puzzle game that works best when playing with friends in real life. It manages the perfect mix of simple and intuitive controls with complex and challenging level progression, and it really stands out as a game with which non-gaming friends and family could easily get involved.

Great duo time.
Amazing time playing with a partner. Tried it solo first, but had a bit of trouble with remembering which hand was controlling which character. Doing it with a partner does indeed involve a bit of screaming and boy is it fun.
