    The result is a pleasant but very narrow experience that is consumed quickly, despite the exclusive sections dedicated to the two characters.

    With Operation: Tango, Clever Plays delivers here a refreshing production that will satisfy lovers of cooperative experiences. The game, with its mastered asymmetric gameplay, simply offers two totally different and yet complementary ways to play. Unfortunately, the proposal, while short, runs out of steam somewhat over time, repeatedly featuring the same mini-games or introducing increasingly confusing objectives. Despite its small flaws, the little creation deserves your full attention, especially if you are looking for an experience to punctuate one or two evenings of your summer vacation.

    A co-op game that's alternatively tense and funny, and occasionally both. [Issue#360, p.122]

    Operation: Tango is a clever and appealing take on a co-op spy experience with eye-catching style and excellent music. It’s short and not all that replayable, and some of the puzzles are annoyingly silly when compared to its best challenges and conundrums, but it’s still well worth a play with a friend with patience and a keen eye for detail.

    Operation: Tango is a challenging spy adventure that will keep you entertained for a few hours. The title of Clever Plays, however, fails to materialize in a thick product, remaining a rather light and undemanding work.

    Operation Tango gets the look and feel of being a secret agent team absolutely right, with a cool soundtrack to boot. But it’s held back by its hit-and-miss gameplay, which can range from super cool to frustrating. A longer campaign may have let the gameplay expand and deepen, but with only 6 short missions and little replay value, it ends up feeling a little shallow. The upside is, this makes the game a perfect candidate for some DLC.

    Операция танго, это не плохая игра, для двоих, это можете быть вы с другом, или со своей второй половинкой!
    Игра не долгая, зато какая    Операция танго, это не плохая игра, для двоих, это можете быть вы с другом, или со своей второй половинкой!
    Игра не долгая, зато какая насыщенная, в одной миссии, вам придется работать с напарником, уворачиваясь от врагов, и во время работы с напарником он должен следить, чтоб тебя не убили с зади, я бы сказал очень жестко!
    Так же есть какие ни какой сюжет, немного истории аля киберпанк, хотя это скорее действительно как будет выглядеть 2033г, на мой взгляд, и мне нравится, но черт возьми очень уязвимы станем мы, для всяких хакеров.
    И еще как для айтищника, мне было очень интересно проходить данную игру!    … Full Review »

    Gut umgesetztes Spiel!

    Es macht echt Spaß, man muss sich manchmal sehr viel in kurzer Zeit durchgeben oder manchmal auch einfach das    Gut umgesetztes Spiel!

    Es macht echt Spaß, man muss sich manchmal sehr viel in kurzer Zeit durchgeben oder manchmal auch einfach das Richtige, wobei man nicht immer direkt weiß was der andere braucht und muss das erstmal gemeinsam herausfinden.

    Wenn man später mal die Rollen tauscht versteht man sich gleich viel besser und denkt sich, oh, ja gut wenn er nur das zur Verfügung hatte, aber gerade das sich gegenseitige Angeschreie macht doch so viel Spaß ;-)    … Full Review »

Some mini-games are extremely simplistic, others make you bang your head against the walls and yet others are dull. Though what seems to be a frustrating bug met here : https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1225177519?t=02h02m33s I plan to play this again once or twice.
    I recommend it, but not at full price ;)    … Full Review »
