However, as you might expect from a couple on the verge of divorce, the pair aren’t particularly interested in relationship advice and instead have their sights set on reaching Rose. Utterly bewildered by their new cartoonish selves, it isn’t long before May and Cody are accosted by an anthropomorphic Dr Hakim, who informs them that they must fix their relationship by working together. The tears of Rose’s despair, in conjunction with a well-timed wish upon two dolls that look suspiciously like her parents, leads to May and Cody leaving their human bodies and awaking in their respective dolls. Their daughter, Rose, has almost run out of ideas over how to keep her parents together, and in a last ditch attempt, she consults Dr Hakim’s mysterious tome, the Book of Love. As a married couple with several years and one child under their belts, the pair have unfortunately drifted apart and can no longer be in each other’s presence without throwing accusations. It Takes Two features two main leads: May and Cody. Stellar voice acting holds it all together, although it does falter at times.The repercussions of a family breakdown are explored throughout.The game’s narrative stems from the impending divorce of its two main characters.It Takes Two tackles a subject typically reserved for film and TV However, a narrative unlike any other game I can recall separates It Takes Two from those previous games, making this a truly unique co-op experience that I thoroughly recommend. But just like Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons and A Way Out before it, Hazelight’s latest game indulges in the vast possibilities of co-op gameplay. Hazelight Studios, the developer behind the co-op-focused A Way Out, is back with another multiplayer adventure in the form of It Takes Two.Īs much as it pains me to say, you can pretty much count on one hand the number of fully fledged co-op games that have come out in the past few years.
