That’s not to say it’s a forgiving game, though. Falling slightly short? Add a dash at the end of your double jump and you’ll likely make it. You have a simple moveset - jump, double jump, swing, grind, and dash - but these all string together in a way that feels completely natural, and it allows for a margin of error if you mistime a jump. Somehow, though, Hazelight has created a 3D platforming game here that’s better than pretty much anything outside of Nintendo. Hazelight’s last co-op game, A Way Out, was packed with a lot of variety, too, but its core gameplay suffered for it - it was still an all-you-can-eat buffet, but the only options were different types of rice. As a platformer, it’s surprisingly refined. Working together in split-screen, you explore gorgeous 3D environments as a pair, solving puzzles and bounding over obstacle courses. In fact, I feel pretty confident in saying this: It Takes Two is the best co-op game since Portal 2.Īt its most basic level, It Takes Two is a platforming game. It’s constantly surprising and encourages playfulness. It’s the most varied game I have ever played, and that variety extends beyond the minigames - it’s packed with unique locations, mechanics, art assets, and animations.
It’s got snowball fights, whack-a-mole where one of you has the hammer and the other is the mole, netball, tug of war, ice pucks, and even an actual chessboard that lets you play entire games of chess. We spent 15 hours playing this excellent co-op game, yet we somehow missed 11 minigames.

You scoff it down and go back for a second helping. In the end, you leave the restaurant feeling satisfied, and with a belly full of more ingredients than your weekly shop.Īfter the credits rolled on It Takes Two, I checked out our completion stats. There’s a section of your plate where your sweet and sour sauce has mixed with your curry and congealed, creating some unholy hybrid.
You’ve got ribs in your chow mein and noodles in your rice. You’ve stacked your dish high with different meals - too many meals, if you’re being honest. It Takes Two is an all-you-can-eat buffet.
