About Above: The Fallen

Mankind has been driven from their homes among the trees by the Night King, a nightmarish beast whose origin has been lost to time. Now, man lives in the dirt, fearing the moments the Night King leaves his roost to prey upon their vulnerable forms.
Every generation the elders send a young couple out into the world to find a new home for their people where they need not fear the relentless hunger of the Night King. Every generation these journeys have failed. This time however, the young couple has decided to ascend into the trees and reclaim their ancestral home instead of fleeing into the darkness. Can they rise above?

Controlling 2 Characters with 1 GamePad
In Above: The Fallen, you play as both the male and female characters at the same time (Single Player Mode Only). They often find themselves in situations that require them to work together to solve puzzles and progress up to the canopy. Each character is controlled with one half of the Gamepad. This offers an additional challenge and requires you to think about each character's positioning before moving. If you don't get the hang of it right away, don't worry, it won't be long before you're climbing through the jungle like Tarzan.

Single Player or Co-op mode!
Bring a friend along with you as you adventure through the world, solve puzzles and work together to defeat the Night King. Swap back and forth easily from single player to co-op with a push of a button.
Vertical Scrolling / Climbing
Climbing is essential to the goal of reaching the forest's canopy. This differs from traditional side-scrollers where you generally move in a straight line throughout the world.
Puzzles
There are many interesting puzzles that you'll come across as you play. Some puzzles are solvable in multiple ways which allows for some freedom to explore. Each successfully completed puzzle brings you closer to facing the Night King!


Skills
As you progress through the world you'll come across shrines that when activated, interact with your amulet, and unlock ancient magic hidden away from humanity. The character's will then receive a new skill which will be needed to complete upcoming puzzles.
Enemies
There are many animals to watch out for while exploring the forest. Use caution while approaching them though, they don't like being disturbed.

This game looks a bit sloppy and sometimes bugs out with the movement but it's free and makes for a fun game to play with a friend.1 found this helpful
Игра 'Above: The Fallen' оказалась приятным сюрпризом в жанре souls-like. Она с упором больше на исследование, атмосферу и повествование, нежели ультра-хардкорную сложность. Сеттинг - постапокалиптический мир, парящий в облаках, захватывает с первых минут благодаря красивой графике и интересному дизайну уровней. Боевая система простая, но эффективная, с необходимостью вовремя парировать удары и использовать специальные способности. История подается фрагментарно через окружение и диалоги с немногочисленными NPC, что создает ощущение загадочности и желание узнать больше о произошедшей катастрофе. Боссы представляют собой довольно серьезный вызов, заставляя адаптироваться к их паттернам атак. Однако, игра не лишена недостатков. Иногда встречаются небольшие технические проблемы, а система прокачки персонажа кажется несколько ограниченной. Тем не менее, общее впечатление от игры остается положительным. 'Above: The Fallen' – это атмосферное и увлекательное приключение, которое порадует любителей жанра и тех, кто ищет не слишком сложный souls-like с акцентом на исследования и сюжет.
[h1] …
i understand puzzle games not wanting to hold your hand, and i usually appreciate that, but the lack of direction here sometimes is so frustrating. getting through a section just to figure out we needed the other character to get there to go through their designated door (bc they only want to show you items/passageways related to that character when you've gotten all the way through) was time consuming and irritating. also, we genuinely could not even solve the puzzle immediately after the female character unlocks the ability to control animals. nothing there made any sense at all n we tried to get past it/think of solutions for around 30mins controls also suck n sometimes are unresponsive or glitch n do the incorrect power lol
[h1]Before I played Above: The Fallen, I had a small pp, no friends, no gf, depression, and no life. These things havent changed, but the game is pretty good[/h1]
Single-player my foot ! (That said, no idea if it's any better in coop.) The controls are intellectually bankrupt. The game softlocks in the first minutes. It's not like the cheap animation is this freebie's selling point, is it ?
