Gameplay
In Chained Together, up to four players are connected by a chain and must reach the top of the map to escape hell. Throughout the game, players can find ten power-ups called Wings that allow them to recover from falling. Players may choose a hard mode, where lava constantly rises, or an easy mode, where there are checkpoints. A single-player mode is available. The game was released on June 19, gaining 80,000 players within its first week of release.

Reception
Cass Marshall of Polygon compared the game to QWOP, Getting Over It, and Only Up!, adding that the multiplayer element built teamwork. GamesRadar Kaan Serin commented that the chains made the game "stand apart". Brendan Caldwell, Edwin Evans-Thirlwell, and Nic Reuben of Rock Paper Shotgun praised the challenge of keeping a strong team.
