    I hate this game for not giving any options at the end. Both of the possible endings are bad and just out of character. Both of characters. It's a cheap drama and nothing else. And it spoils the overall expression. I was really enjoying the game despite all its numerous flaws. I was even enjoying its final twist, however dumb this was. But that final thing is just traumatizing in the worstI hate this game for not giving any options at the end. Both of the possible endings are bad and just out of character. Both of characters.

But that final thing is just traumatizing in the worst way. It's an unforgettable ending indeed, but in the wrong way. That was the the game I'd like to love and ending I'd like to forget. But we rarely get what we'd like.… Expand

    A way out, a wonderful co-op game that can be played with a friend or a girl. Immediately, when I am asked why I love this game, I will say that for the cooperative, it is really good here. Donati is not here, neither the one nor the DLC. The game seems at first glance that the entire game will have to try to escape from prison, NO, escaping from prison takes only a quarter of the game,A way out, a wonderful co-op game that can be played with a friend or a girl. Immediately, when I am asked why I love this game, I will say that for the cooperative, it is really good here. Donati is not here, neither the one nor the DLC. The game seems at first glance that the entire game will have to try to escape from prison, NO, escaping from prison takes only a quarter of the game, the rest of the time will be spent on the loose and solve the problems of the main characters. The game also has no option to play with a random player, there is a local game and a game with a friend, and even if you have a bad Internet connection, the game will both go well. If you want to play with a friend, but he does not have this game, it is not a problem, he needs to download the demo version of the game, but it is necessary that one of you should have a game. The platinum Cup can be obtained in 40 minutes, due to the fact that the game is divided into chapters. The game itself is played for no more than 8 hours. Conclusion: the game is great for what would pass with a friend, if you were wondering what you can play with a friend, then a way out is a great option!… Expand

    The game is made very sloppy, but it has it's great moments. More of a cliche movie than a game. Almost no gameplay.

    Неплохая игра со скудным бюджетом, так то всё хорошо но когда дело доходит до стрельбы или же езды хочется закрыть глаза

    единственная игра по которую жена сказала: "Ну что, давай поиграем". В начале скучновато, а потом становится очень интересно

    un cooperativo entretenido, pero demasiado repetitivo
    apartado técnico aceptable, animaciones y jugabilidad mejorables

    un pasillo con demasiadas cosas secundarias en las que perder el tiempo literalmete
    se centra demasiado en una historia que no sorprende, y que sólo destaca en un par de momentos concretos

    el cooperativo le da cierto atractivo, pero no lo salva de ser un juego mediocre

    I find it really fun to play with your girlfriend or a friend, as it is designed to be enjoyed.
    Hats off to the devs for implementing such a variety of mini-games across the path, too!
    Great game.

    Жаль потраченного времени. Игра, в которой создана иллюзия, будто от тебя что-то зависит. На деле, задумано только так, что нужно выбирать пути, которых можно было бы избежать. Сюжет не затягивает... Ни о каком кооперативе и речи не идёт, дичь... Если вы думаете начинать играть в нее - не рекомендую.Жаль потраченного времени.

    Одна из самых скучнейших игр во Вселенной. Забагованная, однообразная и бревнистая... Ребята, не повторяйте наших ошибок и не теряйте своё драгоценное время на этот кусок говнеца.

    It was a really nice and new experience. I played this game with my girlfriend and we had a blast. The game was fun and the way they made it come together was amazing. Gameplay is a bit lumpy and it was noticable that the studio did this for the first time. The story had some real unexpected elements. It is also a game you won’t play more than once. After all just fun :)

    The game is so good and the co-op is very well planned and fun overall experience. I appreciate the studio and Josef Fares passion on making this game and wish to see more of them in the future. I wish EA will focus on supporting a full games based on fun and story telling more than finding a way to increase loot boxes and cash grabbing predatory and I believe people will give you good scores.

    Utter garbage. Dialogue and storytelling is amateurish, mundane tasks you need to perform over and over again are extremely boring, level design is actually tunnel design, many "puzzles" are at the same time illogical and still super obvious given the tools the game provides the player.

And then the biggest gripe of the game - the cutscenes. There's a ton of them, all extremely poorly written, conveying an all-in-all lackluster story. There can be a 5 min cutscene, then a loading screen to another 5 min cutscene with a narrative time jump, then a time jump back and another piece of cutscene. Played this with my girlfriend and the only brief periods of entertainment we got out of the game was laughing at the super bad dialogue. 1 point for that and the fact that the graphics were the only thing in the game which didn't totally suck. Made my account here to let actual gamers know.… Expand

    Worst **** railroaded ending I've seen in a very long time. Someone needs to look up the definition of "co op" in the dictionary.
    Even before that it was merely OK, with only a handful decisions on what path to take throughout the whole game, which had an extremely cliche and predicable plot.

    Thanks to its purely co-op gameplay, A Way Out is a beautiful experience, which heavily involves both players throughout the adventure.

    We need more games like A Way Out. Josef Fares’ new title is not only one of the best interactive movies ever made, it also understands and executes co-op exceptionally well and shows how much potential lies in the AA segment. [05/2018, p.53]

    With attention to detail within every nook and cranny, watching how their two stories diverge and converge at integral moments of the game is a fascinating experience that needs to be played through twice. Playing as both Leo and Vince will offer two unique story paths, as they both have different roles in solving puzzles, while narrative-forks provide a Choose-Your-Own-Adventure element to the story.
