About this game

Work Together or Fall Apart

Dependium throws four players into a high-pressure coordination challenge where individual skill means nothing without teamwork. Each player faces their own rapidly rotating series of cognitive puzzles, memory tests, pattern recognition, shape matching, and reflex challenges. But there's a twist: the points you earn don't go to you.

Every puzzle you solve helps your team. Every puzzle you fail hurts them. When a teammate hits zero, they're out—and the entire team feels the loss.

How It Works

Four players. Four corners. Four different puzzles happening simultaneously.

You can watch your teammates struggle with their challenges in real-time, but you can't help them directly. All you can do is solve your own puzzle fast enough to keep them alive.

Health constantly drains. The clock never stops. Teamwork is everything.

Key Features

  • Asymmetric Cooperation - Succeed together by helping the person next to you, creating a chain of mutual dependence

  • Split-Screen Spectating - Watch all four players simultaneously as they race against individual challenges

  • Rotating Minigames - Memory tests, color matching, shape recognition, pattern recall, and coordination challenges

  • Escalating Pressure - Constant health drain and increasing difficulty force faster decision-making

  • Boss Fight Sequences - Periodic synchronized challenges that require all four players to coordinate perfectly

  • No AI Teammates - This is a real multiplayer experience requiring four human players

This Is Not a Solo Game

Dependium requires exactly four players. No bots. No single-player mode. If you don't have three friends, use the matchmaking to find strangers who are just as likely to let you down.
