It seems that players are no longer interested in anything other than online shooting games. Modern gaming reportedly caters exclusively to those who are isolated in their rooms, wearing headsets and shouting with other players online to refine their strategies. However, Josef Fares believes otherwise, emphasizing that there’s always room for playing together on the couch.
His latest game, Split Fiction, requires collaboration as players control Mio and Zoé, two authors seeking a publisher. They become trapped in a high-tech publishing simulation that turns the stories they write into a game. They must work together to navigate through each other's genres and ultimately escape.
This game is designed for two players; it cannot be played solo. The inclusion of a free Friend Pass allows players to invite friends who don’t own the game to join. Fares highlights the importance of collaboration, stating that “it’s a deeply collaborative experience, where cooperation between players is at the heart of everything.”
