Chained Together is a multiplayer game developed by Anegar Games, designed to test your coordination and teamwork skills as you and your friends attempt to escape from a hellish environment. Here’s an in-depth guide on how many people can play the game and how it can be played both solo and in multiplayer modes.
Ever wondered what it’s like to escape from hell with your buddies? Well, Chained Together is here to answer that burning question – pun absolutely intended! So, how many of your friends can you drag along on this infernal adventure? Let’s break it down:
How Many People Can Play Chained Together?
The official player count for Chained Together is a cozy group of up to four players. That’s right, you and three of your closest pals can link up and attempt to claw your way out of the underworld. It’s like a demonic double date!
But wait, there’s more! Some crafty players have discovered a sneaky little trick to squeeze in a fifth person. It’s not exactly playing by the rules, but hey, who follows the rules in hell anyway? To pull off this fiendish feat, you’ll need three players in the group, then have the fourth and fifth join simultaneously. If the gaming gods smile upon you, you’ll end up with a party of five ready to tackle the flames.
Now, if you’re feeling particularly brave (or masochistic), you can always go solo. That’s right, you can face the fires of hell all by your lonesome. It’s perfect for those moments when you want to practice your platforming skills or just need a break from your friends’ “helpful” screaming.
