    The energy he needs to do this can only be harvested outdoors, where he himself cannot go. He therefore created an android to help him.
    Plants are the only living things left in this world where human civilization is no more. It is cruel, but beautiful.
    The Professor and the android embark on a quest to bring animals back to the planet. This is a tale of creating life on a dead planet.
    The animations for all creatures have been redrawn, to help them come alive even better. Once you complete the main story, you will be able to enjoy “Chapter 0”, a new special story that includes new art and music and will tell you more about the Professors’s past.
    And as an added bonus, once you complete the game, you will unlock the option to change the main story’s soundtrack to a fascinating new version played by a piano quintet (piano, two violins, viola and violoncello)

I bought it on a whim during a sale, and I'm glad I did. Maybe I get emotional easy, but the story - told through little exchanges and story beats at the beginning and end of the game - did well to tug on my heart strings. Soundtrack is solid, especially the orchestrated variations. Gameplay tends to be heavily trial and error, but I personally didn't mind. No sound effect either, but you forget about that quick enough. All in all, I recommend, and can't wait to see what else this team can do!… Expand

The core gameplay concept - combining DNA from differentWorld For Two features gorgeous pixel art and some inspired animal designs. The core gameplay concept - combining DNA from different organisms to create new species (reminiscent of Doodle God) - also shines, but needless busywork buries it under monotony. Each creature you produce can provide three DNA samples for your experiments, after which it disappears. Because only certain combinations will lead to new species, you'll inevitably run out of certain DNA and have to reproduce the creatures needed for more DNA to continue experimenting. As such, you must venture to one of four biomes to harvest the DNA and then travel back to your lab to continue your experiments. This needless backtracking sucks up the majority of your playtime, and a cliched story does little to push you forward. With some tweaks, World For Two could be a hidden gem, but with all the unnecessary padding, it's just another mediocre indie amongst the masses on the eShop.… Expand
