Big Walk

Big Walk is a cooperative multiplayer adventure from House House about teamwork and talking. Players set out with friends through a wide-open world full of challenges, puzzles, and discoveries. Its key differentiator is a proximity voice chat system: voices fade across distances, echo down corridors, muffle through walls, and crackle through walkie-talkies. When speech is not an option, players use Arms to point, wave, and gesture—or flail around wildly. Big Walk can be played online with 2 to 12 players and includes crossplay. It is a hand-crafted cooperative adventure meant to be played start-to-finish with a group of friends, though there is also time to sit and watch the sunset or steal a friend’s binoculars and kick them into the ocean.

Proximity Voice Chat, Arms, and Tools

The proximity voice chat system makes voices fade across distances, echo down corridors, muffle through walls, and crackle through walkie-talkies. When talking is not possible, Arms let players point, wave, and gesture to communicate. An assortment of tools and toys supports this loop: walkie-talkies, laser pointers, binoculars, megaphones, flares, whiteboards, cowbells, and a big golden head. These items are used to stay in contact, figure out new ways to communicate, and—according to the source—steal a friend’s binoculars and kick them into the ocean. The communication design is the game’s central cooperative mechanic.

Open-World Navigation and Flexible Player Count

Big Walk is set in an open world to navigate together at your own pace, with challenges, puzzles, and discoveries along the way. Player count is flexible: as few as 2 players creates a focused co-op experience, while as many as 12 becomes an absolute mess. Crossplay lets players online with friends on other platforms. An Ending frames Big Walk as a hand-crafted cooperative adventure meant to be played start-to-finish with a group. Adventuring aside, players can hang out, sit and watch the sunset, or steal binoculars and kick them into the ocean.
