TWIN FLAMES, a two-player co-op puzzle game inspired by Savitri and Satyavan, is heading to Steam for US$9.99.
That split view is the point. Each player sees information the other can’t, so the pair has to talk, share what they know, and plan their moves together. That suits a story about a woman who talks her way past fate.
Rudrac Games says TWIN FLAMES launches on Steam on 24 November 2026 at 12:15 PM IST (06:45 UTC). It is priced at US$9.99, with a 20% launch discount for the first seven days. The game’s Steam store page, however, still lists a planned release date of Q1 2027 and says the game isn’t available yet. The studio says the Epic Games Store version will follow, though it hasn’t given a date, and Epic’s page says only that the game is “coming soon”.
Each level is a turn-based puzzle on a hex grid, and both characters must reach the exit to clear it. You can play online with built-in voice chat, side by side in local co-op, or through Steam Remote Play Together. Solo players can also control both characters. The story follows two separated lovers travelling across mythic realms to find their way back to each other. The studio says there are five realms, while the Steam page mentions seven.
The Steam page gives different figures. Rudrac Games says the game has more than 50 levels, takes about three hours to finish, and supports 10 languages. The Steam page lists “40+ levels”, about two hours of play, and English plus 12 more languages. The studio says the game runs on Windows and macOS, but the Steam system requirements list only Windows 10 (64-bit), 8 GB of RAM, and 10 GB of storage. The store page also mentions controller, keyboard, and touch support, plus cross-platform co-op with Android “when available”.
In the story, Savitri doesn’t win by force. She wins by refusing to give up and by talking her way past fate.
Venkatesh Muskam, founder of Rudrac Games
Muskam founded the independent studio, which makes games rooted in Indian mythology and culture, and TWIN FLAMES is its first. Muskam says he built the game almost entirely on his own in Hyderabad. The company says the game won the 2025 Best Indie Game Design Award at the India Game Developer Conference (IGDC). It also joined LVL Zero Accelerator Cohort 01, and made the shortlist for the IGDC 2026 Indie 60 showcase. The conference’s 18th edition ran at the Chennai Trade Centre from 28 to 31 October, and its Indie 60 aims to showcase 60 Indian indie developers and studios.
The developers disclose on Steam that the game’s voice overs are created using artificial intelligence.
Split Brain Samsara, from Kusa Games, also splits a single character between two players online and arrives on Steam the same week.
Whichever launch date holds, you don’t have to wait to try it. A free demo, first released in July 2025 and shown at Steam Next Fest, is available on Steam now. You and a partner can try the split view for yourselves.
