A little about this game

Getting out means helping each other through. Side by Side gives two travelers matching exits, gates and pressure plates. One person may need to wait on a plate while the other crosses, so describing a plan is part of the puzzle.

How to play Side by Side

  1. Move Moss and Coral with their separate controls.
  2. Stand on a pressure plate to open its matching gate.
  3. Help one player cross, then hold the plate on the other side.
  4. Finish with both travelers on their matching exit squares.

Side by Side questions

What opens a gate?

A traveler must stand on its matching pressure plate. Leaving that plate closes the gate again.

Can either traveler hold a plate?

Yes. The colors identify the two plates and gates, but either traveler can stand on a plate.

What is a useful first plan?

Let one traveler hold the plate on the left while the other crosses the upper gate and reaches the right-hand plate.

Do both travelers need to finish?

Yes. Moss and Coral must stand on their own matching exit squares at the same time.

Can we walk past each other?

Yes. The travelers may share a floor square, so you do not need to squeeze past each other in a narrow passage.

How do we play on one keyboard?

Use WASD for Moss and the arrow keys for Coral. On-screen direction controls are available too.

Can one player move both characters online?

No. Each private player key controls only its own traveler.

Can we undo a wrong turn?

Yes. Shared Undo reverses the last accepted movement on the common board.

Can we play on different devices?

Yes. Create a private room and send its invitation to one partner. Each player controls their own seat. Reloading this browser can restore its saved player key.

What happens to a private room?

Access expires 48 hours after creation. Expired room data is scheduled for automatic deletion. The creator can close the room sooner. Same-device games save only in this browser.
