What he sent you is a built project, not the project itself.

If he intended to share the project with you, you'll have to ask for the source files. The folder structure will then look something like this: alt text

Thank you. That makes sense. Is that the reason there are so many .dll files ? Because the project is already compiled? Thanks for the help, I am new to unity. So much to learn @asafsitner

Yes. The .dll files are the compiled source code of the project. Also the .exe file.

If you both are going to work together on the project, I would highly suggest setting up some source/version control tools, such as git, Plastic SCM, or Unity Collaborate. It would make sharing the project simpler and ensure you're both synchronized with the latest changes from each of you.
