How to play Red Rope: Don't Fall Behind + on Mac

Game summary

Red Rope: Don’t Fall Behind is an allegorical local co-op game: the two protagonists represent the archetypal couple, united by a rope that represents their bond. Red like fire, red like blood. Their link has a double meaning: it surely is a restriction, a promise, a limit to their liberty, but it is also an alliance, a pact, a synergy. Without their link, the rope, they wouldn’t be able to survive the insidious labyrinth in which they move, they would be defenseless facing the macabre presences that torment them, they would be indiscernible from the roaming shadows they themselves sacrifice to strengthen their bond. What the players have to face is an initiatory journey in search of the key that opens the exit door (exit that coincides with the entrance, according to the esoteric principles of the original labyrinth). An arduous and difficult challenge, a cathartic ritual, that only the most valiant players will be able to carry out, players with a special elective affinity.
