    Игра очень классная, проходил со своей девушкой Анастасией, я играл за Лео, много динамики и классный сюжет не даст скучать, единственный минус - это финальный выбор, не понимаю почему так решили сделать

    One of the best co-op experiences! A beautiful story of 2 people, story that will keep you on your feet, it will make you experience happiness and sadness, laugh and tears and most importantly brotherhood and heartbreak. While the game isn't that big, it's still enough to make you feel like you are on emotional roller coaster.

    I never used to enjoy split-screen gameplay, but "A Way Out" changed that for me. It was my first experience with it.

    In terms of gameplay, "A Way Out" is awesome! I had a lot of fun playing it with my friend and we shared many laughs. The optional activities available between objectives are incredibly enjoyable, ranging from fun and funny to downright weird. These aspects contribute to the game's awesomeness. The game's concept is really great, and so are the dialogues, movement, and other gameplay elements. They aren't mind-blowing, but they do a good job of keeping you entertained.

    The story of the game is truly compelling. As a fan of story-driven games, I appreciated the cinematic quality of "A Way Out." It felt like playing through a movie with an excellent storyline. The bond between the two main characters is strongly developed, creating a deep connection. I did have some issues with the main antagonist's story and its lack of development, but aside from that, there's little else to criticize. The ending left me satisfied, evoking a mix of sadness and feelings for the main characters. Despite laughing throughout the game with my friend (if you're not, you're doing something wrong), I still managed to feel for the characters. However, this emotional connection might not be as strong as it would be in a single-player experience, which offers deeper immersion in a video game.

    The voice acting was also outstanding. I loved the voices of both main characters, though Vincent's voice was by far the most impressive due to its depth.

    I hosted the game using Remote Play Together from start to finish. I'm not sure if this caused the issue, but I experienced occasional tiny stutters, like frames skipping, throughout the game. While not game-breaking, it did affect immersion. I want to mention that my friend, who played via Remote Play Together, occasionally saw the game pixelated or blurred, though this wasn't a frequent occurrence, and might also be related to our internet connection rather than the Remote Play Together feature. I was impressed, however, when my friend mentioned experiencing no noticeable delay. To clarify, this isn't a Remote Play Together review, but I wanted to share my experience using it in this game. You can also play without Remote Play Together, either online or locally on the couch. Playing with someone on the couch seems to be the optimal way to experience the game.

    In summary, "A Way Out" is an excellent game to enjoy with a partner (indeed, that's the only way). It offers a lot of fun, laughter, engaging co-op gameplay, and a well-crafted, intriguing story. If you're seeking this kind of experience, "A Way Out" fits the bill.

    It's an ok game.

    Pros.:
    - The story is touching.
    - Using a controller is neat.
    - Some decision-making.
    - The game blends multiple previous gaming experiences: Just Cause, Uncharted, GTA, etc.

    Cons.:
    - They artificially extended the game (to create more sympathy with the characters).
    - Decision-making is actually less effective as you think.
    - Ending - should have made more options.

    For me, this wasn't a mind-blowing experience. But it slowly makes you become attached to its characters and their stories. And that's where I think this game shines. It will probably not be the best game you played or the most brilliantly executed, but you might leave with a fun and memorable experience.

    Неплохая кооперативная игра, рассказывающая нам о двух заключенных - Лео и Винсенте, которые должны выбраться из тюрьмы.

    Графика в игре неплохая, особенно красиво выполнены джунгли. Механик в игре не очень много, но есть одна невероятно ужасно выполненная - стрельба, на геймпаде аим ассист через раз работает и ты практически вслепую стреляешь, так же в игре есть момент перестрелки

    Механик в игре не очень много, но есть одна невероятно ужасно выполненная - стрельба, на геймпаде аим ассист через раз работает и ты практически вслепую стреляешь, так же в игре есть момент перестрелки между главным персонажами и если один из вас на мышке, а второй на геймпаде, то второму человеку можно в принципе забыть о победе в этой дуэли.

    Коммуникация между персонажами выполнена в принципе неплохо, нет никаких закрепленных ролей за персонажами, поэтому вы на ходу можете решать кто чем будем заниматься: к примеру один будет отвлекать охранника, а второй красть отвертку и т.п. ситуации.

    Концовка игры реально до слёз.

    In A Way Out kommt alles auf Zusammenarbeit und Kommunikation zwischen den Spielenden an. Die Möglichkeiten des Ko-op Gamedesign werden hier bis auf das Letzte ausgeschöpft. Darunter leidet jedoch etwas die Geschichte, in der eine besondere erzählerische Tiefe zu wünschen übrig bleibt (8/10).

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. У игры есть всего несколько аспектов, которые смущают во время прохождения. Первый связан с перманентным ощущением, что игроков ведут за ручку и не дают сделать шаг куда-то в сторону, из-за чего даже открытые локации с кучей активных действий порой
    воспринимаются душно и линейно - у разработчиков, к сожалению, не получилось создать иллюзию свободы, или же эта иллюзия теряется где-то к середине игры, когда ритмическая структура становится однообразной: открытая локация - погоня, драка - уникальная активность (заезд на машине, плавание на лодке) - открытая локация - погоня... И так до конца. Когда к этому привыкаешь, становится и очевидной повторяемость - меняется лишь форма - активностей: то бейсбол, то дартс, то на инвалидом кресле покачаться - каждый раз здорово, да, но с каждым разом все меньше удивляет. Улетучивается и ощущение хоть какой-то необходимости в диалогах со случайными прохожими (хотя необязательность их очевидна ещё в самом начале) - да, прописаны эти диалоги интересно, мимолетные лица разнообразны и порой забавны, но никакой нагрузки это не несёт, поэтому я даже почти не подходил к ним, чтобы не терять динамику происходящего.
    Но, несмотря на то, что игра неубедительно предоставляет свободу, несмотря на бесполезность некоторых активностей и откровенную идиотскую сущность пары сцен - "Way out" это замечательное кооперативное приключение, может, одна из лучших игр такого рода, что успели создать игроделы.
    Первая половина игры - это действительно увлекательный экшен, когда интересные механики только раскрываются, ритмическая структура ещё не ясна, а иллюзия некоторой свободы присутствует, даже qte ещё не приедаются своей однообразностью (можно же было сделать хотя бы сочетания кнопок, а то всегда заранее знаешь, что нажимать придётся только две)...
    И ещё. В игре, на удивление, достойный сценарий. Хорошее ремесленническое достижение - персонажи получились живыми, мотивации ясными, а финал каким-то чертовски трогательным. В конце понимаешь, что не проиграл или выиграл, а что произошла какая-то неизбежная потеря - один из игроков, кто выжил в конце, как и выживший персонаж, остаётся с грузом на сердце, ведь потерял хоть и, скажем, врага, но того врага, который столько времени был напарником в самых залихватски поставленных сценах игры; так же каждый персонаж остаётся с невыполненными задачами, которыми нагрузили их сценаристы - это своеобразное многоточие тоже привносит дополнительное дыхание жизни в эту историю...
    Несмотря на то, что какие-то составляющие игры приедаются по ходу прохождения, тем не менее, все хорошо скрепляет хороший сценарий, драйвовая постановка и уникальный опыт совместной игры, который на моей памяти один из самых интересных и увлекательных...

The game is a co op based game and it seems that developers did a great job while developing the episodes. before starting the missions always put you two in a area where you can relax and play some challanges with your mate. Unlike other open world games, this game has no big places. And thanks to this the map the game gives us a great good looking and living world. Thanks to the optional challenges, the pleasure which you get from the game becomes better.

    And game gave us an unexpected and emotional ending which may be the most important reason why you should buy this game.

While the ideas are generally not bad, they are just not implemented in a very challenging way. The game looks fine and the performance is good with the exception that it kept crashing on startup. I found a fix for that online but that was unnecessarily annoying. Also, the game is very short, my friend and I completed it in less than six hours.
    Overall A Way Out is fun to play with a friend as long as you don't mind unspectacular gameplay and many cutscenes. In that case, I would recommend this game with just one exception. The free friend's pass is great but the game is still far away from being worth 30€. I picked it up for 8€ and I wouldn't pay much more.

    Mechanics are wonky, specially when shooting or simply using a flashlight, and the game only allows you to move like a **** handicapped manechin. Also, you wont need to replay levels, because you LITERALLY CAN'T DIE. It doesn't matter that the bad guys are BLASTING you with cannons, you can just keep riding your bike and chilling while admiring the views.

    It's just not worth your time. Do yourself a favor and go play "It takes two" instead.

    50 tane hapishane filmi-dizisi izledik, bari o atmosferi daha iyi ve genişçe anlatsaydınız. O da yok. Bu oyunun neyi beğendiniz tam olarak? It Takes Two bunun 50 katı daha iyi. En azından oyunu oynuyorsun.

It has emotional moments but its more like an action adventure narrative rather than an emotional one. The final three chapter are so much fun. They saved the game for me. Fully recommended Expand

    I started with great expectations, but neither the gameplay in the first half nor the kombat in the second half were good at all. I'm sorry it wasn't good.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I wanted to play with my boyfriend after getting a great experience playing with the same studio game, It Takes Two. But how disappointed I was with this game. It's not good at all. Lots of bugs, formulaic character behaviour, predictable events, completely uninteresting interaction primitive. Pick something up, give something away. We literally forced ourselves to go through the game, but it's a good thing it's short. We were counting on a cool story and ending at least. But the developers just kill an already boring and dull game with an even more stupid ending. The developer makes an executioner out of the player making the ending brutal anyway. It's just inhuman and not what I was going to get out of the game. Okay if it was justified by the story, but it's not even justified by the story in any way. It's a complete failure. Expand

    This is a 18+ game that treats you like a baby.

    This game has a lot of potential but it fails miserably.

    A way out, one of the best coop games I've ever played. I loved the narrative, the music, the graphics and the final plot twist were the best.

    One aspect to improve is all the mini-games that appear when you have an urgency and you have to run or be quiet. This in my opinion breaks the immersion of the game, but could be fun if the minigames appear in the safe zones. On the other

    On the other hand, I've only played local coop, and I can't speak for the people that played onlie.

    With that said, this game offers you a good story with followed with lovely audio and visuals, If you like to follow a lineal game with a little bit of emergent gameplay and alternative finals, a way out is your game.

    I can easily say that this game is the best co-op game in the world. The game affects you emotionally and you almost feel that you are one with the characters you choose. Maybe you can even cry with your friend at the end of the game.

    Fun game to play with a friend (especially drunk). We loved the mini games and the story....until the ending. What the hell were they thinking that did not make any sense and we were shaking our heads in disbelief. Graphics and voice acting were nothing to write about, dialogue felt a bit stiff.

    On another note : We need more games like this, real cooperative games with a story.

    Sounds great, plays out not so great.
    If you are a gamer (like spending more than 4 hrs. a week gaming), this is utterly boring and predictable.
    The charakters are forgettable, the story is at no time surprising and the coop-elements are so ez, that you will be bored to death. This game ist made for casual gamers. We where more entertained by making fun of the game, than the game

    A Way Out | 2018 | PC | Played for: 7h

    Action driven co-op game.
    It is not a must play or strongly recommended game, but overall for the 6 hours span it is mostly fun to play.

    Animations are stiff, sound is not top notch but graphics are nice and runs well even with two separate rendering windows.

    Story: 8/10
    Gameplay: 6/10
    Graphics/Physics: 9/10

    A solid nostalgic experience for every male in their late forties that can't forget that chirstmas evening in Nakatomi Plaza. The fairly original mechanic, "immersive" mini games and chicken throwing as well as the reasonable plot almost compensate the cheesy lines and absurd scenes. Its never been so easy to find somebody in Mexico.

    The story of the game starts out a little strange, you don't understand until after a while that the plane scene is in the future and they didn't know each other until the first meeting. The story is very simple and cliché in general but it keeps you entertained and wanting to see more, which is good. The plot twist at the end is really good, but I thought there was a lack of forshadowing from him (some 'tips' from him before), except that he makes you feel a little bad. The 2 finals of the game I didn't like so much but this is something personal, because in technical matters he is very good (direction, gameplay and script).

    For the time of the game the protagonists are quite deep, they did a good job with the assistants too.

    Gameplay. The action is good and the controls are very interesting. Decisions that affect 'missions' are pretty cool. I just found the puzzles (the focus of gameplay) too easy and simple. In Brothers, the difficulty of this item was much greater in general. The minigames are cool.

    The soundtrack does not add so much, except for one moment in the end of the game, that it is really good.

    I liked the game. The game has many advantages, but there are also quite a few disadvantages. On the downside, I'll take it: bad animation of movements and facial expressions, sometimes a rather naive plot. The pluses include: a variety of gameplay and a good ending.
    And the main plus of this game, of course, is the passage of two, in front of one screen.
    It was very interesting for me

    Hazelight’s interactive movie sets a new standard for co-op games. It’s varied, thrilling, very pretty and enjoyable for both hardcore and casual gamers. It evokes tons of positive emotions and I can’t remember last time an action game moved me so much. [05/2018, p.50]
