Big Walk Wiki

No, Big Walk requires a minimum of 2 players. The entire game is designed around cooperative communication and teamwork — puzzles cannot be solved alone. You need at least one other person to coordinate with via proximity voice chat and communication tools.

Big Walk supports cross-platform play between PC (Steam/Mac), PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2. The host shares a Join Code that anyone on any platform can use to connect. Add friends on your platform's friends list for automatic session discovery, or use Join Codes for cross-platform play.

Big Walk uses proximity-based voice chat where your voice volume naturally decreases as you move away from other players. Corridors create echo effects, and walls block or muffle sound between rooms. Walkie-talkies provide distance communication with static crackle, while megaphones amplify your voice range.

Big Walk is a handcrafted adventure with a clear beginning, middle, and end. A typical first playthrough takes approximately 4-6 hours depending on your group size and how thoroughly you explore. The game has high replayability as different group compositions create different communication dynamics.

Using external chat like Discord is strongly discouraged by the developers — it breaks the core puzzle experience. Big Walk's puzzles are designed around proximity voice limitations, and using Discord removes the communication challenges that make the game unique. You'll miss the most interesting part of the game.

Big Walk features multiple puzzle types including crane puzzles, relay puzzles, glass-wall communication challenges, simultaneous switch puzzles, and more. Puzzles scale automatically based on player count — the same puzzle adapts for 2, 3, 4, or more players with adjusted difficulty and coordination requirements.

Big Walk is available on PC (Steam), macOS, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2. It is NOT available on Xbox. The game supports full crossplay between all available platforms.

No, Big Walk is a premium game priced at $19.99 USD with no in-app purchases or microtransactions. During the first two weeks after launch, there is a 25% discount bringing the price to approximately $14.99. PlayStation Plus subscribers can get it free on launch day.

Yes, the host can enable challenge skipping for puzzles that require hearing, speech, quick reactions, or fine motor skills. This is part of Big Walk's comprehensive accessibility system which also includes motion reduction overlays, FOV adjustment, fully rebindable controls, and visual aids.

The host is the sole keeper of the save game. When the host disconnects, the session ends and all players must leave. To continue a saved game, the same person must host again. This means you should choose your host carefully — pick someone who can commit to being available for future sessions.
