We Were Here Tomorrow Temporal Research Centre Walkthrough: Power, the Construction Site and the Time Loop
On this page
What is verified on this page
This page is a launch-day scaffold from October 20, 2026. The places and trophies come from the Exophase story list in order; the segment label is this site’s grouping, not an official chapter title. The full route is on the walkthrough hub.
No preview played this far, so there are no verified puzzle steps here yet. Each solution lands on this page after a live co-op check in the released game.
Trophies on this route
Six story trophies in Exophase order — the densest stretch of the route. None are missable: they all unlock by progressing.
| Done | Trophy | Grade | How to unlock |
|---|---|---|---|
| A Matter of Time | Bronze | Arrived at the Temporal Research Centre | |
| Knowledge Transfer | Silver | Restored power to the Temporal Research Centre | |
| Forward to the Past | Silver | Adventured through the TRC Construction Site | |
| All Grown Up | Silver | Cultivated a Battery Bulb | |
| Eternal Recurrence | Gold | Got stuck in a time loop | |
| Once More | Bronze | Geared up for one more adventure |
Two tools, two views of every puzzle
The two tools are chosen at the start rather than assigned by player number: TheGamesLayer’s hands-on describes picking between the Goo Gun and the Grabber, and the trophy list names the pair the Hook Gun and the Goop Gun (the Grabber is the hook tool). GameWatcher’s gamescom session had players swap roles mid-section.
So read the two sections below as perspectives, not fixed lanes: jump to the Hook Gun explorer (Grabber) or Goop Gun explorer section from the table of contents for your side of each puzzle.
Hook Gun explorer (Grabber)
- Verified tool facts only: the hook grapples to energized surfaces (Danger! High Voltage) and can hook your partner (Now I’m Hooked).
- Knowledge Transfer restores the Centre’s power and Forward to the Past is the TRC Construction Site. What the hook explorer does among the scaffolding gets written up in the live check.
- Detailed puzzle steps for this segment will be added after a live co-op check.
Goop Gun explorer
- Verified tool facts only: the Goop Gun makes goop blocks to weigh, boost, bridge or gunk with, and can lock your partner in place (You’re Chatty for a Statue).
- All Grown Up asks you to cultivate a Battery Bulb. The studio’s botanical research notes catalogue plants recovered from Rift 0 — the in-fiction roots of what grows here (story) — but no preview confirms which explorer grows it; the live check settles that.
- Detailed puzzle steps for this segment will be added after a live co-op check.
What both explorers need to know
- Eternal Recurrence (Gold): got stuck in a time loop. The very next trophy in the list, Once More, has you gearing up for one more adventure, so the loop reads as part of the story rather than a punishment — the live check will confirm what actually happens.
- After Once More the route leaves the facility for Beyond the Rift.
