Plan your next BOKURA: planet session
Our independent guide breaks down BOKURA: planet’s core cooperative elements—communication, the Push action, hidden objectives, session timing, and platform quirks—so you can approach each challenge with clear expectations and avoid common missteps.
01 / THE GUIDE
Voice‑Chat Warm‑up
Spend a few minutes describing only what you see on your screen while the partner listens. This builds the habit of precise narration that the puzzles rely on.
- Test your voice‑chat software before starting the first stage.
- Use headphones to minimise background noise for both players.
02 / THE GUIDE
Push Coordination Drill
Choose a simple area with a clear landing spot. Practice timing a push so the partner lands safely, noting distance and angle for future use.
- Agree on safe zones before attempting a push.
- Avoid pushing when the other player is near cliffs or spikes.
04 / THE GUIDE
Cross‑OS Visual Sync
Run the game simultaneously on Windows and macOS, compare visual cues, and confirm that both screens display identical information for puzzle solving.
- Reserve a three‑hour block for the first playthrough.
- Take brief, coordinated breaks to discuss strategy.
05 / THE GUIDE
Three‑Hour Session Planning
Outline a rough timeline for the estimated three‑hour playtime, inserting short breaks for strategy discussion to keep communication clear throughout.
- Confirm both computers meet the OS requirements before purchase.
- Use a controller only if it feels comfortable for you.
