It Takes Two is a cooperative action-adventure game designed exclusively for two players, playable in local split-screen or online. Players control Cody and May, a married couple transformed into dolls, as they travel through fantastical environments based on their home and relationship. Gameplay combines platforming, puzzle-solving, and action sequences, with each level introducing new mechanics and giving the two characters different abilities that must be used together to progress. The game frequently changes its core mechanics from chapter to chapter, incorporating sections involving shooting, racing, flight, and other genres.

This superb cooperative platformer adventure comes to Nintendo Switch with a great port that has almost nothing to envy to the rest of versions. It even adds new features, such as a careful dubbing into Spanish with very recognizable voices. If you have Switch and you like cooperative games, you should not miss it for anything in the world.
It Takes Two is a remarkable puzzle-platformer that constantly surprises and delights, as long as you've got a co-op partner.
Alas, what should be a runaway creative success for the game’s director, Josef Fares, is marred by a tone-deaf narrative element which shows that asinine ethnic caricatures unfortunately still exist in video games.
A joyful, colourful, and hugely inventive cavalcade of co-op antics that makes superb use of having two players for both its unique challenges and unscripted hijinks.
