FAQ

Can Hold Your King be played solo?
No, the game is designed exclusively for two-player cooperative play. There is no AI partner or single-player mode. You can play locally with a friend on the same screen or online via Steam Remote Play Together.
Do I need a controller to play?
While keyboard-and-mouse is supported, the game strongly recommends using two controllers for local play. Having each player on a separate controller with analog sticks makes fine adjustments to grip and positioning much more natural.
How long does it take to beat the game?
A first playthrough typically takes 4 to 6 hours, depending on how many times you drop the king into spikes. Experienced teams can clear the game in under 3 hours. There are also optional challenge levels and time trial modes for additional replay value.
