Had tons of fun playing through this one, dare i say this is the best co-op experience ever, by far. A beautiful entry to play with your s/o or a friend regardless if they play games or not.
Loved the creativity of each area & the interpretation of multiple genres within them, while still allowing for simple but extremely fun gameplay mechanics.
The race parts, the ice skating, the huge gardens, the whole chapter that was essentially a snow-globe and the Wizard top down crawler-like stage were my favourites. Puzzling was not difficult but yet not too easy, gameplay was so much fun-yet not complicated, the story was well crafted, the boss stages were interesting, and all the little details and mini games scattered throughout the stages were a joy to explore. Hopefully these guys will be coming back with another similar game in the near future, because theres nothing quite like it!!!!

Itd be a 5/5 but Cutie the II's sacrifice was unnecessary and heart breaking lol

PS great soundtrack

Fui jogar esse jogo sem muita expectativa, pois o A Way Out foi bem elogiado na época também, e eu não gostei e larguei o jogo depois de pouco tempo por não gostar da jogabilidade. Se não fosse o mesmo esquema de tela dividida dinâmica (e um easter egg), eu diria que nada lembra o jogo anterior do estúdio.
É absurda a variedade de mecânicas nesse jogo e como eles equilibram bem a dificuldade do jogo pra ser algo acessível pra jogadores casuais e ainda manter o interesse de jogadores mais experientes. A variedade de gêneros entre as fases é grande o bastante pra você se impressionar mesmo sendo algo já comentado por todo mundo que elogia o jogo.

Por mais que eu tivesse vontade de queimar o livro falante e só pedir pro casal assinar o divórcio logo, a variedade de temas das fases ligadas à história me manteve interessado no desenrolar do enredo do jogo. E tenho certeza que o Conselho Tutelar levaria essa criança embora se vissem o que fizeram com a Elefanta...

Acho impossível não dar 5 estrelas pra um jogo com tanta variedade, onde mesmo as fases em que não gostei, são no mínimo boas e as melhores são excelentes.

Very few games can call themselves co-op-only experiences. That is where It Takes Two shines. There should be more games in this genre, so if you want this style of experience, It Takes Two is for you. While the gameplay is mostly fun, the overall experience's only consistency is its inconsistency.

The game starts off weak, but eventually gets fun when more inventive gameplay get introduced. Some chapters really shine, but the game overall lacks a consistent quality.

Along the way to the objective and fun boss fights, there are small things to distract you and play with your gaming partner. At some point, we ran past these and only pulled over for the 1v1 mini-games. For a game that encourages childlike exploration, it is insane to me that there are no collectables or secrets to be found in this.

The absolute low point of the game is its uninspired story and grating characters. The plot follows a troubled married couple and their daughter. Both parents get transformed into their daughter's toys she created and have to traverse a warped version of reality to reignite their love for one another. I personally felt the story and its ending should have been more mature, gradual, and risky; it ends exactly as you think it will. Also, the entire cast of characters are annoying and unlikable. The daughter's vocal performance can only be described as horrific. Why don't companies hire actual children to do voice work and write them appropriately?

Onto the star of the show: the Book of Love. This has got to be one of the worst, unfunny video game characters of all time. The developers tried to make him so annoying it would be funny, but they didn't do anything interesting or smart with his character. His existence is never explained and his inclusion is only to add edgy, tonal brevity to an otherwise boring cast of characters and uninteresting story.

The game drags on way too long. By the end, there is no explanation or magical reasoning for the adventure you just went on, and it is very unsatisfying. It has some great, fun chapters, although I wish it had more puzzles because the later chapters feel disjointed. It is also very replayable if you play as the other character the next time around. It's very accessible to gamers of all skill levels, so give it a shot if you can tolerate the lame story and grating characters. I suggest skipping the cutscenes in this one.
