It Takes Two - PlayStation 4

This game was so much fun! I'm not a gamer but I recently bought my husband the PS5 and he moved the PS4 to our livingroom, that's when I decided to buy this game. He was so into it that he spent more time playing this instead of using his new console. It's fun, the storyline is great and it was so entertaining. I wish it would've been longer cause now I don't know what to do with my life after finishing this game! Definitely recommend.

Amazing, simple and complex but fun for all levels of gamers.

I liked it - graphics were great. Very tricky AND it literally takes two players. However, my other player liked it but prefers the shooting games… not sure if I will ever get to the end.

(Minor Spoilers Ahead)My wife and I played A Way Out during the pandemic in 2020, and we absolutely loved it. So when Hazelight announced It Takes Two, we were really excited for another co-op adventure. Hazelight could have easily created another gritty, crime drama, but they decided to go in a completely different direction and surprise us with a fantastical romantic-comedy about a couple trying to repair their marriage. On paper, that may not seem like a very compelling premise for a video game, but under the confident and creative direction of Josef Fares, the team at Hazelight have created an engaging, interactive masterpiece.In terms of gameplay, It Takes Two has the heart and soul of a Toy Story movie, the platforming and gadgets of Ratchet and Clank, the mind-bending puzzles of Portal 2, and the stressful boss fights of Cuphead. This game has something for everyone, and the number of different and inventive game mechanics is staggering. After a while, I lost count and thought, “They can’t possibly introduce something new again.” But they do! And they do so exceptionally well!Without trying to spoil too much, here are several of my favorite moments and mechanics:Cody’s sap gun and May’s match gunCody’s nail throwing and May’s hammerheadThe magnet mechanic in the middle of a snow stormMay fighting a squirrel on top of a plane, Street Fighter styleMay stealthing past sleeping moles using Cody’s grass mechanic (who knew moles could be so tense and terrifying?)Cody’s size-changing mechanic and May’s gravity bootsRiding on top of a giant translucent catfish dragonThe elephant scene (you’ll know it when you get there)Cody’s cactus modeCody’s flower / leaf growing mechanicMay’s singing!If you love puzzles like Portal, Limbo, or Shadow of the Colossus, you’ll love the puzzles here. It Takes Two does a fantastic job of introducing a new mechanic and then forcing you to use them in ways you never thought of. Once the light-bulb goes off, it’s immensely gratifying!My only complaint (and it’s a really minor one) is that the game doesn’t have a final boss. After enduring one hectic boss fight after another, I expected the ending to conclude with one. Nevertheless, the game is still amazing with plenty of minigames to find after the story mode.It’s hard for me to think of how Hazelight can possibly top It Takes Two. They’re quickly becoming one of my favorite game developers, and I’ll be looking forward to their next game when it comes out.

Absolutely amazing game. MUST be played with a close partner. Every married couple with kids should play this. Be warned, it's sad. But absolutely worth it.

This game is a really fun, no pressure game. Couch co-op games are hard to come by these days so I was happy to be able to play this with my husband.

Each different zone of the game has a new charming theme and different gameplay gimmicks. My brother and I played it twice together, so each of us could experience both Mae and Cody's gameplay. Mae and Cody take turns helping each other through. There are very emotional moments in the game that are very well-written.I'm teaching my mom to play 3d videogames now with it. It's her first one and she's enjoying it a lot.

Me and my husband love playing together. It’s a very fun way to bond together.
