    Juego, super divertido. En este caso lo jugamos en familia, y para mis dos hijos es una experiencia de entrada perfecta a los videojuegos.

    游戏制作者一定玩儿过很多游戏，里面有很多别的游戏玩儿法的影子，这是我玩游戏以来遇到的最好的双人合作游戏。

    It was the most high-five game I've ever played. It has pretty good level designs and boss fights. The music was incredible. The action was 10/10. I played this game with my cousin. We had fun just like when we were kids. It was quite a great experience. Please make more good games like this. Love you guys! You are the BEST!

    Beautiful game for two. One of the best mechanics ever that amaze me with every level. There's so many moments from this game that I would like to be expanded, but then ended and gave me a desire for more. Must play!

    Played this with my girlfriend. Probably the most effort I’ve seen a game go into level designs just to sprint through them in 10 seconds. Definitely a very simple game for casual gamers which I understand due to its nature. This game is basically a single play through, almost like watching a movie play out. Short and sweet.

    One of the best cooperative gaming experiences of my life. My wife, who is not a gamer, at all, actually played this with me and had so much fun! After nearly 15 years of marriage this game just might turn her into a gamer. A masterpiece of a game!

    | Best Multiplayer Game Out There |

    This is a multiplayer game. First and foremost, it is a multiplayer game meant for you to play with a friend (or rather, a partner, if a gamer managed to find someone) and I think it excels in that aspect. It is the perfect multiplayer experience, with an interesting comedic story, fun gaming elements, and enough competitive and cooperative moments    | Best Multiplayer Game Out There |

    Overall, this game is fun. However, I do think that the game can be way too easy, and many of the cutscenes are just... bad. Whether that be the basic graphics or the heavy-handed story, it just isn't as good compared to the creativity embedded throughout the game. So much so, that it is nearly perfect.    … Expand

    Played this game every night for like two weeks with my wife, and she loved the **** out of it. It was a lot of fun, and I love couch coop games for the way they get my wife to take part in my favorite hobby with me.

    Honestly one of the best gaming experiences I've had. Mainly because I've rarely if ever played games with my girlfriend. We jumped on it without knowing anything, and we both had such an amazing experience she is now more open to gaming

    Mereceu o GOTY, jogo inovador, divertido, diferente, engraçadinho, e ainda é multiplayer, a cada mapa novo é uma aventura nova, tem vários cantos interessantes pelo mapa pra explorar e brincar, muito bom!

    As soon as I saw the trailer for "It Takes Two" by "Hazelight Studios", I immediately knew - this is going to be a co-op masterpiece, and I will play it with my wife! And so it happened.

And so it happened. Adventure games have always been in demand in the gaming market, but there has always been an acute shortage of cooperative games, especially in recent years. And this game is a co-op adventure of the highest level!

    Perhaps the only downside to this game is the script. And all the dialogue in the game + some of the scenes that follow from that. I haven't listened to such incompetent dialogue in a long time. Moreover, 90% of the cutscenes consist of chatter about nothing, with dull and boring characters with far-fetched problems.

    But other than that, the game is great. Excellent cooperative gameplay, where each of the two players has a unique role (there is replay value), a lot of mini-games, each level gives new game mechanics, something is constantly changing in the game, while there is always time for fierce battles, and for puzzle solutions for both platforming and crazy rollercoaster rides! In general, in terms of gameplay for the cooperative - everything is super! Glory to Ukraine!    … Expand

    This might be the best coop experience I've ever had. every single level has so much detail can charisma. i can see this game was definitely created with passion. This was brought by the same guy who created A Way Out and now i am a fan of his. cant wait to see whats next on his amazing crazy mind.

    It Takes Two is the magnum opus not only of Hazelight Studios but of co-op experiences in general. It’s one of those extremely rare games that it’s almost impossible to find a fault to any of its elements, be it the longevity, gameplay, art direction, music, boss fights, environmental puzzles, innovation etc. A truly flawless experience.

    It Takes Two can be considered one of the best games in the history of Co-Op genre, one that takes it above and beyond video games, animations and even Hollywood movies in terms of emotional relationships.
