Platform: PC, Steam · Activation region: Global · Delivery: instant digital key by e-mail

What you are buying: a Digital Activation Key. Nothing is shipped physically and there is no physical delivery. We send the key to the e-mail address you enter at checkout and show it in My account → Orders.

Before you buy: check the platform and the activation region shown on this page. A key activated on a different platform, or on an account registered outside the stated region, may be rejected. “Global” means an account registered in any country unless this page says otherwise; a regional key (for example EU) works only on an account registered in that region.

How to activate: for a Steam key, open the Steam app and choose Games → Activate a Product on Steam, then enter the key. For another platform, use that platform’s own code redemption screen. Full instructions are in our Delivery Policy.

If a key does not activate, has already been used, or does not match the platform, region or edition stated on this page, we send a working replacement or refund you in full: see our Refund and Cancellation Policy.

Note: The Past Within is a co-op-only game. Both players need to own a copy of the game and a way to communicate with each other. Play with a friend or find a partner on our official Discord, which is linked in the sidebar! 

The past and future cannot be explored alone! Team up with a friend and piece together the mysteries surrounding Albert Vanderboom. Communicate what you see around you to help one another solve various puzzles and explore the worlds from different perspectives!

The Past Within is the first co-op only point-and-click adventure set in the mysterious world of Rusty Lake.
