About the Game
Split Fiction is a co-op action-adventure from Hazelight Studios where two writers are trapped inside their own stories.
Split Fiction is an action-adventure built around two-player cooperation, and Steam files it under Action and Adventure. You play as Mio and Zoe, two writers with very different tastes: Mio writes science fiction and Zoe leans toward fantasy. After they are connected to a machine designed to steal ideas, they find themselves stuck inside the stories they created, and the only way to protect their memories and escape is to work together.
The core experience is about moving between sci-fi and fantasy worlds and picking up new abilities along the way. The store description paints a picture of rapid changes of pace. One moment you are taming a small dragon, and the next you are fighting as an electric ninja, running from a troll, or dodging a flying car thrown by a robot parking attendant. Each stage asks you to tackle its challenges as a pair, so the developing friendship at the center of the story comes through in how you play.
What stands out is how strongly the game is designed for sharing. The description calls it strange and wild, and says it was made to be played with a partner. That fits the tags for online co-op, split-screen co-op, cross-platform multiplayer, and Remote Play Together, which suggest the game is meant to be enjoyed side by side with someone else.

Who It Is (and Is Not) For
Recommended For
Split Fiction suits players who enjoy co-op games they can play with a friend, partner, or sibling, especially those who like varied action sequences. Its mix of sci-fi, fantasy, and an unexpected friendship gives the story a playful, unpredictable tone that many co-op fans will appreciate.
Not Recommended For
If you prefer to play alone, this is not the right pick, because the design centers on two players working together. It is also less suited to anyone who wants a slow, reflective experience, since the store description emphasizes high-energy moments that keep you on edge.
What the Steam Reviews Say
Split Fiction carries the Steam label Overwhelmingly Positive (壓倒性好評), with 97% of its reviews positive. Its review volume is in the hundreds of thousands, which is a very large sample, so the score is a stable signal of how most players feel about the game.
On Steam, Overwhelmingly Positive is the top tier of the review scale and reflects a strong consensus among reviewers. With a count this large, a percentage in the high nineties is dependable, whereas smaller titles with few reviews can swing sharply on a handful of opinions. Reviews still describe other people's experiences, so they are a guide rather than a promise that you will enjoy it yourself.
