About

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. What the players have to face is an initiatory journey in search of the key that opens the exit door. 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.
