The verdict
A wildly inventive two-player co-op adventure where every level brings new mechanics. It's best with a partner or friend; skip it if you can't stomach the grating story and the dark elephant scene.
Great for
Couples, friends, and parents with kids who want a creative, varied co-op adventure
Main risk
Grating story and characters, plus the disturbing elephant scene, can sour the whole game
What players love
