About this game

Enter a mesmerising trance of co-dependence in Duet. The rules are simple: control two vessels in sync, survive against all odds and keep calm.

Your survival is dependent on protecting two vessels - they are devices in sync, a dance and song between two entities tethered together in symbiosis. Feel edge of your seat terror where the world around you becomes quiet and numb as all that matters is the game living between your palms -- that is Duet.

Ratings and reviews

This game is honestly so incredible. It's so focused around navigating emotions and challenges around life, which I love. It's helped me be more mindful while also giving me something to do when I'm bored. There are so many simple things to appreciate, too, like the music and the animations of the balls and blocks and background picture. I think the way the game teaches you how to do it is amazingly put together. And the ads don't interrupt you during a level, which is amazing. Overall, AMAZING!

I paid for the premium version and all maps (around $5 total), and it was absolutely worth it. The game was very challenging at first, but once you understand the mechanics you can start to fly through. The music and story are surprisingly good for a mobile game. The smooth movement of the balls and great responsiveness made it incredibly addicting even when it was super challenging. Plus the challenges give basically infinite replayability, which is awesome.

If you love well-designed, minimalistic, skill-based twitch arcade games, this should be on the top of your list! Once you've cleared and mastered the main levels (easier said than done), every paid DLC adds a new, mind-bending mechanic to up the ante! An added bonus is that people who watch you play will think you're some kind of mastermind, but that's besides the point.
