About this game Read the full description

If you're reading this you might be on the fence as to whether to buy the game with your hard earned $

I dont think anything you read here will push you over the edge. Check the reviews online, watch some videos you'll see the game holds up. We asked our mum and she said it's awesome.

If you like puzzle games then take the plunge. If you don't like you can always refund!

If you have a partner/friend/relative/child you can also play with them and have a great time.

⚠⚠⚠ Play online with friends using Steam's Remote Play Together! ⚠⚠⚠

But the game is great solo. You just use both sides of your brain at once!

OK back to the usual 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. Fast to Fun and one of the few co-op puzzle games where anyone, young and old can play.

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 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, 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

  • Full voice acting by Ricepirate Mick. He's a legend 

  • 80x puzzling levels in the Story levels

  • 40x 4 Player Party levels

  • 45x Vault Levels (too hard for the main game)

  • New for 2025: 42 new 2 Player levels in Extra Vault

Welcome to the bottom of the Steam page and since you're hear we can ramble on about the game

  • Is this a sokoban game? We'll in this game YOU are the blocks. But you also push around other blocks so I guess it is a sokoban puzzle game. 

  • We even have a fully voiced, funny story that plays out throughout the 80 story levels. Will Dave make it through to the end? 

  • Fun fact the game is called RORORORO (ロロロロ) in Japan which happens to be one of our most popular regions for the game. And the kanji ロ means mouth but also looks like our bots. And then ロロロロ could be also seen as "argument" so in hindsight we wish we called the game this from the start.

  • The game was made in Sydney Australia and started out as a Global Game Jam game. Hence the punny title which we just rolled with

  • We have the Nintendo Switch to thank for making this game not a complete financial failure but in the 7 years since release we've been able to maintain a constant trickle of sales and it's still been one of those "hidden gems" in the co-op puzzle genre.
