Excellent variety of mechanics. Story was fun and silly without taking itself too seriously for the most part. Game was not too long; it executed exactly what it needed to, without overstaying its welcome.

We never needed a couple therapy...

... and yet, my gf and I would choose to crash one every time if it was a trip in all kinds of gaming environment. It Takes Two dominates in this imaginary set of gameplay, challenging but fair with obligation to team coordination. But that's just a handful of what Josef Fares and Hazelight …

We never needed a couple therapy...

... and yet, my gf and I would choose to crash one every time if it was a trip in all kinds of gaming environment. It Takes Two dominates in this imaginary set of gameplay, challenging but fair with obligation to team coordination. But that's just a handful of what Josef Fares and Hazelight Studios throws together because, boy, do they ever run out of ideas they could throw into this co-op adventure potpourri? A stellar co-op entry that every loving (or disagreeing) couple should sit down to give a try.

Also, we finished this on a Valentine's Day.

The wife and I finished this a couple of nights ago. This was a great experience for us, considering how much the game encourages the players to work together. My wife is a casual, mobile app type of gamer. She doesn't ever play console games, so this was a fresh concept for her, learning how to platform. She enjoyed herself and I would highly recommend playing this game with someone you want to connect or bond with through gaming.

My wife and I started playing this game. She's not a gamer at all, but she wanted to participate in my hobby with me and this game looked interesting to her. So far, the platforming has been a total blast for both of us.

We played again today. We’re so close to the end but we got stuck on the sound waves because of the delay… it’s late where my friend lives so we gave up for now 😞

Played it with my coworker every Friday during lunch break so it took us almost 1 year to finish. 🤣 We finally able to finish it today... great game with variety of unique gameplay. However, I feel like the ending was slightly anticlimactic due to no big boss battle.

Played with my friend again tonight. We had fun but still haven’t managed to beat the game. Hopefully we can meet again soon to finish. But she’s moving so it might be a while 😭

No lo he jugado porque no tengo a nadie con quien jugarlo :(

Pero me lo he visto entero y la verdad que vaya maravilla, tiene más mecánicas que dialogos, y mira que no se callan los cabrones

It feels dreamlike, that my wife agreed to try It Takes Two with me.

For someone who has never double-jumped in their life, she did so with determination. The excited yelps made my heart swoon with every passed obstacle. It was fascinating to see what controls came naturally and unsurprising how the right analog stick to control the camera is …

It feels dreamlike, that my wife agreed to try It Takes Two with me.

For someone who has never double-jumped in their life, she did so with determination. The excited yelps made my heart swoon with every passed obstacle. It was fascinating to see what controls came naturally and unsurprising how the right analog stick to control the camera is a highly dizzying manoeuvre to acclimate to.

Mostly, its soul lifting for her to share my love for video games. We could play pong for all I care. I just feel love for her.
