It's a fun, charming and an even more challenging experience together with a friend. And if I say challenging, I mean challenging. Already in the very first levels you'll come across very puzzling parts if you want to go for all collectibles. Partly this is also because the game does not the best job in explaining it's mechanics to you and sometimes, you'll learn some controls later than you would have already needed them - but this is only an issue in the early stages.

    While possible and still fun, I wouldn't recommend playing it alone. You won't be able to explore all areas alone and it is also only half the fun - which, to be fair, is still a lot of fun, though. But I highly recommend to grab a friend for this game.

    Having said that, my only real issue with the game is, that despite the focus on cooperative play, Xbox Achievements are only given to the main profile, but not to your coop partner. It's very fustrating for the 2nd player to see all the achievements for the hard work are only popping up only for P1. I asked the very friendly and responsive devs if they can fix this and they promised to look into it - hopefully, we will see a fix for this.

    Anyway, Chariot is highly recommended for everyone looking for a funny little couch coop game that is also challenging enough that you will really feel good when you solve puzzles together!    … Expand

    Maybe i should try multiplayer. Good solid puzzling. Better that it was free. I don't feel it adds much new to puzzle games but it has little competition on xbo.

    In its base form, Chariot is cute but frustrating—a great idea with a lot of flaws.

    Overall, Chariot is a game that is deliberately slow-paced and also demands patience.

    Chariot is a puzzle-platform developed with co-op mechanics in mind, that loses part of his charm when played alone. The game is based on its realistic and well implemented physics, and knows how to entertain, also thanks to its high replayability.
