My friend and I sat on this game for a LONG time. We talked about playing it and we weren’t sure if it was going to be fun (since we both preferred more action-based coop).
BOY WERE WE WRONG. WE HAD A BLAST.
If you really don’t mind puzzle games and laughing over crappy directions that your friends gave you, you two will have a lot of fun. The game encourages you to not play while looking at each other’s screen and rather, communicate verbally instead. I think it’s the best advice to enjoy this game. We had so many hearty laughs over what we had to do to solve them or how we messed up trying to get to the solution.
However, there is one mission that kinda tore our hair apart bc it was so long and there were so much multi-tasking mini games. The puzzles can get very difficult, too, but that’s the nature of the game. I’m also surprised at how buggy it can be? We had to do a hard reset two times. It wasn’t too bad but one of those time happened during the frustrating mission so yeah, not pleasant. 😭
Buuuut I recommend! It’s extremely fun with a buddy :)

An ok attempt at an asymmetrical coop game. My main issue is that most of the game consists of various different mini-games to represent "hacking". And almost none of those mini-games are particularly good. Or, if they are, they're not fun after you've done for the 10th time.
Wanted to like this one more. Both me and my friend were burnt out on it by the end. It just doesn't have enough good ideas to fuel it's already short runtime.

Asymmetrical co-op games are at least a little cool by default.
I would say the easiest way to describe the mission and puzzle quality is hit or miss. And even then some of the puzzles that are hitting a bit better are just Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes or Spaceteam.
The game is also very short, so the misses end up being a pretty big portion. That said, I had a good time overall.
Friend Pass is appreciated, and on that note this game probably gains some rating since I played it with a friend until late into the night.
