Solvimus

Solvimus is a cooperative puzzle game designed strictly for two players. It is set in the laboratories of the I.N.T.E.L.L.I.G.E.N.C.E. Initiative, a fictional organisation that tests minds and friendships. The game contains 30 teamwork-based puzzles spread across five areas, called parcours, and is described as lasting more than ten hours.

Each puzzle is built around separate perspectives and asymmetric roles, so the two players cannot see the same view. The game is not splitscreen. Each player plays on their own device, both players need their own copy, and a stable internet connection is required. The five parcours are Dynamic Duo, Vertigo Venture, Beam Bafflement, Hostile Havoc and Chrono Conundrum. They involve gravity, lasers and mirrors, fast-paced puzzles with environmental hazards, and time loops and paradoxes.

Players can communicate through built-in voice chat, a ping tool and more than 30 emotes. Completing puzzles efficiently places a pair on a global leaderboard. The game also includes a hidden Easter egg treasure hunt in which players solve riddles and find secrets to unlock a golden reward. On Steam, the game’s review rating is currently Positive.
