Ep. 5 - The Unravelling of a Forgotten Purpose with It Takes Two
It Takes Two is the latest game from the cooperative-focused studio out of Stockholm, Sweden, and it goes a long way to infuse trust and dependability between yourself and whomever you decide to play with.
The Hazelight co-op journey is always a feat of inundation, making who you play them with practically more important than the how or why you take part in them. For their previous title -- a bro-op game featuring two convicts escaping from prison -- I played alongside my forever cooperator, my brother. It was fitting, wonderful, and our hyena-like giggling only paused long enough to concentrate in awe through the bigger, more cinematic moments.
For It Takes Two -- a game about two adults, parents, who have decided to get a divorce, only to be turned into dolls by their daughter, set to face trials that are led by a relationship self-help book in order to challenge their partnership -- I played it with my partner. My significant, insanely uplifting future wife.
