    There's no question It Takes Two is a well-crafted game. There's no debate it is somewhat fresh in its execution and should be applauded for following its own unique vision. Heck, no one would argue it's not fun. Its shortcomings, however, do make one wonder if others got a little drunk on the novelty of it all. Instead, while it offers a somewhat refreshing take on the platforming genre this is mostly by virtue of being an exclusively co-op experience. It could have benefited from more refined characters, as well as better online support on Nintendo Switch. Really, where It Takes Two is going to be best suited is on a couch with a partner playing together.

    It Takes Two is a very fun game that should honestly be about half its length, but the Switch very much does not feel like the place you should go to play it. The major graphical downgrades and added loading screens make it hard to recommend no matter how good the gameplay feels or how clever the writing is. If you’re looking for a fun game to play alongside your significant other or a friend, It Takes Two is among your better options in general, but you’d likely have a far better experience on PlayStation or PC than on Switch.

    It Takes Two on Nintendo Switch is a welcome and solid port of a modern co-op classic. The usual caveats around the game graphics apply – if you can play on a higher-powered console, then you should – and you’ll have to figure out your own voice chat solution if playing online, but this is the same great game that Hazelight released last year.

The developers from Hazelight StudiosThus, an interesting and affordable title called "It Takes Two" was released for the Nintendo Switch. The developers from Hazelight Studios have done a lot right with this title. You will experience an interesting story with two characters and maybe with the big love. At the same time, the control shows its positive side. Unfortunately, the graphical presentation of "It Takes Two" can't always keep up. However, solo players should rather look for a partner to play the title successfully, because you can't play it alone. Those who would like to play with a friend are welcome to get "It Takes Two" on the Switch.… Full Review »

Aucun puzzles ne se ressemblent et on a droit à une gigantesque variété d'environnement, de mécaniques de jeux et d'énigmes. L'histoire et les personnages sont très bien écrit, on s'attache vite aux personnages et on a envie de connaître la suite et de ne jamais s'arrêter de jouer. L'aspect multijoueur en duo est extrêment bien implémenté et c'est un plaisir d'y jouer avec un.e ami.e ou un.e proche.… Full Review »
