I have. Gameplay is great. Puzzles are great. Couch co-op is great. Story and characters are terrible. Bad parents make repeated awful decisions and are assholes to each other for 2/3 of the game.

Fun co-op game. My son and I had lots of fun playing this on Xbox Game Pass [xbox.com].

It's great but also a test in patience if your significant other isn't so... gamer inclined. Half the time we're playing I'm waiting for her to time a decent double jump. 😭❤️🤝

This is my absolute favorite couch co-op game and well worth its normal price. My non-gamer significant other and I played through the entire story. Many different environments, mechanics, and mini games. Highly recommended.

Wife and I were going to play this we each have our own gaming pc and controllers. (I actually have 3 monitors on my pc. I also have a steam link for the TV. With all my options what is best? I should mention we only own 1 copy (my pc)

Echoing all of the above. The level concepts and designs are compelling. Perks change on a given level, which keeps it interesting. The premise is sound, but it felt a little weird playing with my 12 year old son. It's in this odd gameplay space of looking like a kids game with a narrative of adult issues. It delves into parenting and losing oneself and a loving partnership in the fog of adulthood. The daughter's part in the storyline is indeed pretty dark.

I'm sorry I don't have an answer for you. Hopefully someone in this thread does. Wife and I played this on PS5 on the sofa.

I agree they're not well written and the characters aren't likable per se, but I really like them. The book guy is crazy. The nonsense of it all was entertaining to me.
