    I can't remember a game that has given me so much fun. From the first to the last minute! The game is full of creative ideas, the graphics are excellent and the story fits perfectly with the wacky setting. I can only give it the highest score.

    A game which is absolutely not even a bit my tipical genre, but the ambient it creates playing with your significant other / friend is phenomenal.

    This game is the undoubtedly the best choice you can make, if you plan to introduce someone into gaming, who wouldn't do it by themself.

    Great game that loves its players and gives you long adventure filled with huge amount of mechanics and little fun stuff to do with your partner on this journey

    Really fun game with a big variety of mechanics. Clearly a lot of thought has gone into the co-op element, and it's a reasonable price

    This game is insanely fun. Though I didn't find the story so engaging (the book of love is extremely annoying), I can't give it less than 10 due to the excellent quality of the gameplay. I'm playing it with my brother and we've just beaten the clock boss. I don't want it to end.

    新冠同样改变了游戏界，一个可能算不上3A级别的游戏，用新鲜的玩法征服了挑剔的评委，也抓住了想和女性友人一起通关的玩家的心

    It takes two is a really nice game for two players with a surprisingly emotional story. But you need a second person with a not so little amount of skills, otherwise you will have a very hard time since it really does take two people to complete each and every challange. The game was lucky to win Game of the Year, 2021 had no real challengers otherwise it would never stand a chance.

    It's a puzzle game, what can you say. I like the premise.

Das kleine Koop Abenteuer, das man im besten Falle mit dem Lieblingsmensch spielt, sprießt nämlich nur so vor Kreativität und gutem Gameplay. Hier stimmt einfach alles. Nie kommt Langeweile, immer kommt sofort eine neue Mechanik eine neue Idee um die Ecke, die einen wieder begeistert ans Pad fesselt. Das der großartige Action Puzzle Plattformer zudem nur im Koop zu spielen ist zeichnet das Spiel insbesondere nochmal aus. Es bleibt seiner Idee treu. Josef Fares bleibt seiner Idee treu.

    An amazing co-op experience with a tender, sweet story. Gameplay is interesting, and the mechanics vary with each chapter—keeping you & your player 2 engaged until the very end. A must-play for gaming couples.

    This game is a GEM. I haven't been so much into a game for many years. Regarding the gameplay- there are so many new ideas integrated, the game is so much fun and I can't believe how much NOT repetitive. The levels design is gorgeous.

    I love it! I'm buying all of the studio's other games.

    Amazing co-op game! At first I kept seeing all the ads for the game and it didn't peak my interest, but I heard some people say good things about it. Convinced my friend to play it with me and we both loved it.

    One of the best co-op games in a long time.

    Хорошая игра, которая постоянно удивляет тебя огромным кол-вом механик, вам всегда подкидывают что-то новое. Сюжет понятен, он затрагивает важные темы. Прошёл игру с девушкой, игра и умиляет и даже иногда пугает некоторыми моментами. Визуал и музыка на высоте.Хорошая игра, которая постоянно удивляет тебя огромным кол-вом механик, вам всегда подкидывают что-то новое. Сюжет понятен, он затрагивает важные темы.

    The game is fine. I liked it at first, but it got boring near the end. I expected the story to be much better, but that wasn't the case. To be honest, the ending was pretty bad. But Hakim was fantastic. I played the game with my little brother, and he thought it was an 8.

    太好玩了，游戏的关卡设计将两人的配合发挥到了极致，极致到连跳过动画都需要两个人都长按按键。虽然关卡已经很多很好玩了，但是通关后还是觉得意犹未尽，期待DLC或者续作？（大概率是没有），也期待类似玩法的游戏。
    除开线性的主线剧情，游戏中有很多地方可以自由探索，解锁小游戏，或者和物体互动，各种小细节非常用心。
    唯一的缺点可能是对于平时不太玩游戏的人可能偏难，经常是我等我老婆过关，并看着她一次次死掉。上手后到游戏中后期会好一点。    太好玩了，游戏的关卡设计将两人的配合发挥到了极致，极致到连跳过动画都需要两个人都长按按键。虽然关卡已经很多很好玩了，但是通关后还是觉得意犹未尽，期待DLC或者续作？（大概率是没有），也期待类似玩法的游戏。

    Im not joking this was the christmas game i was always hoping for, I played it with my girlfriend and we had such a blast and we will also replay it since it it FULL of amazingly polished mechanics, It takes tow does a lot and they do ALOT AMAZING. I say it is my favorite couch co-op game ever made. Next game that is comparable amazing is Broforce which is also so much fun with friends on a couch.

    Es un juego muy dinámico, el movimiento y las animaciones están súper bien hecha.
    La forma cambiante de las mecánicas, toda la variedad cada dos por tres es una auténtica gozada, y todas súper variadas y aportando cosas nuevas.

    Vamos con las cosas malas, es necesariamente cooperativo, pero bueno, si tienes alguien con quién jugar, quizás si buscas un desafío, puede hacérsete demasiado fácil, y bueno, no tiene doblaje, un mal menor.
    Lo bueno? Mucha variedad en cuanto a gameplay, su toque de humor genialmente medido, deja escenas inolvidables, su originalidad prima, y todos los detallitos que va dejando a lo largo de la trama.    … Expand

    It Takes Two takes the tried and true action/adventure-puzzler genre and turns it into possibly the most collaborative split-screen co-op game ever created. Coupled with the presented marital issues between the main characters that make for fantastic springboards to discuss with your own Player 2, It Takes Two will strongly resonate with just about anyone who picks up a controller. Although character development was a bit lacking and the story somewhat sluggish, these issues do not diminish the incredibly imaginative level design and supremely enjoyable boss battles. If you’re looking for a case study in co-op puzzle games that deserves to define the genre going forward, grab a partner and pick up It Takes Two.

    However you want to look at it, though, between its solid story and its just-the-right-difficulty puzzles, It Takes Two is a perfect game if you’re looking for something that will interest non-gamer[s].

    Josef Fares wasn’t kidding when he said that It Takes Two is unlike any other platformer: it’s amazing how many various mechanics and ideas found their place in this game. [Issue#253, p.32]
