    Such a fun game to play with friends with a very fun ending. 100 percent recommend this game. Only downside is poor graphics but I love the game and the style of the game

    This game is boring AF. The mini games just requiere to press a button and you can time it however you want. I was expecting something similar like Army of Two, but I got a game with amateur animation, cheap dialogue and boring "challenges". The only fun I got was trash talking this game while playing it.

    If you have a friend who can play this game, buy it without missing out. With the free pass system, when one of you owns this game, your friend can play for free. There are more mechanics in the game than I can count. The graphics are not bad. The voiceovers are pretty good. End of the game... I've never felt this emotion in any game.

    Ця гра мене дуже порадувала, графіка та анімації не на найвищому рівні, але вона на стільки крута, легка та цікава, що не звертаєш уваги на ці недоліки. Однаково розважає обох гравців.

    Grafica e meccaniche di gioco sufficienti, trama abbastanza interessante con qualche colpo di scena.
    Gioco simpatico da fare obbligatoriamente in 2, quindi un punto in più per l'originalità.

    This game is really fun, the story is **** bozo crap but its kinda funny and i like goofy stuff sometimes, especially since im plaing it with friends, the level design can be pretty generic but pretty **** good sometiems, that chase sequence is still one of the best in a video game ever. Its fun it looks nice, the actors are doing their best. Its just nice its got a lot of soul

    Pésimas mecánicas de gun play y de conducción, te hace definir quién "gana" o "pierde" el juego desde una mecánica poca clara. De las peores experiencias jugables narrativas que he tenido en el último tiempo, NO LO RECOMIENDO.

    Es un juego disfrutable ya que no hay gran catálogo de juegos de multijugador local enfocados una historia, pero es demasiado predecible; llega a ser la típica película de venganza en la que además ocurren cosas sin sentido por el "bien" de la trama jaja, y no es algo que ocurra una sola vez. Un objetivo sin gran peso que no te hace sentir mucho porque no te lo hacen sentir.

Un objetivo sin gran peso que no te hace sentir mucho porque no te lo hacen sentir. También es bastante corto, a pesar del relleno al interactuar en la mayoría de zonas, y creo que pudieron darle un poco mas de dificultad y libertad en las partes de acción y sigilo. Como dije, es disfrutable a buen precio y cualquiera lo puede jugar porque no se enfoca en la dificultad, sino en el trabajo en equipo. Acerca del final, pudo haber mas opciones.… Expand

    SUCKS ASS. DO NOT PLAY.

    Graphics are meh, but the story was written by a 14 year old wattpad user who came up with the most cliche plot twist that ruined the whole story. The start is kind of interesting, but from the minute 5 it goes downhill. Characters are boring, Vincent is as exiting as a cold, bland bowl of oatmeal, and the voice acting doesn't help. Dialogues are just awkard,    SUCKS ASS. DO NOT PLAY.

Dialogues are just awkard, even cringey at times.
    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.    … Expand

    This is a good coperative game, sometimes at the beginning it was a little boring or there were places in the game where you didn't know what to do and the game didn't react in any way.And so a very interesting game for two people

    My only issue with the game was that it wasn't longer. Almost perfect, like a very solid episode of your favourite show. You don't know what it's missing, but you know it's missing something.

    When my friend and I started playing this game, we went in thinking it's just a breaking out of jail puzzle game. The more we played, we realized that this game had so much to offer, with elements from many game genres! The ending is quite emotional and I would personally not recommend couples playing it!

    Wow was this game a lot of fun. exciting and interesting story, shallow yet fun gameplay, and a complete game. I think A way out has started something we,ve never seen before in gaming.

    There are huge problems with realism in the game. The game makers did not pay any attention to the end of the game. they almost never delivered a story with so much potential. The story part is subjective, but the realism part of the game is definitely lacking. Not all police and mafia can be like this. Also, this ending doesn't suit this game.

    This title will vary based on your coop partner. Assuming this isn't a problem, you should have a good time. The story was the highlight for me. It reminds me of an action movie meets crime drama.

    I think it's a great game, with a great story, great level design and gameplay that's different from other games. I played it locally with a friend and we had a great time.

    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.
