This game has exceeded my expectations in terms of 1) story, 2) gameplay, and 3) couch co-op. The story was amazing from start to finish. It hooks you in as it starts and makes you choose decisions that will affect the end game. By the end of the game both players will feel as if they had connected with their respective characters in some sense and enhance that experience even more. In terms of gameplay I didn't expect much since this game is story driven, but the environment destruction and the tag team of the duo really makes the game better. However there are some bugs here and there but that shouldn't be an issue since they can always patch that. Lastly, the coop, you can play in the same room or invite your friend to play with you even if they don't have the game. So it saves them money but they can still enjoy a great story. Overall, I give this game a 10/10.

This game is ambitious. For $20 you get a whole game and have to play it with a friend. The quality is standard along the lines of an independent developer, the narrative linear and the plot predictable. It's like playing through an old movie, one you're familiar with but still find endearing. If the odd dialogue doesn't intrigue you, you'll find it off-putting and distracting. But those imperfections give this game character and if you can stick it out until the end you are rewarded with an epic ending worthy of your time and $20 investment. Bonus, all the mini games and stuff are great and more fun than you'd expect. Nothing like stopping to play a game of darts or connect 4 while on the run from prison.

From the makers of a Tales of Two Brothers comes this little indie gem. Though somewhat on the short side A Way Out is one of the most memorable couch co-op experiences I had in a long time. The game does a good job of fully utilizing the two player venue. From team puzzle solving to partner timed button presses, this game goes through every two player possibility you can image. I could talk about the story but the co-op and the way it was excuted in regards to the story makes all the difference. If you like playing games with people in the same room this is a must buy.

I could write an entire review of this game but I'll sum it up: definitely worth the price. Grab a friend and go with it. It wasn't too long of a game, I was able to complete it with my friend in two long sessions, but we had a great time playing through it. The story is pretty interesting, and the characters were fun, but it's the unique gameplay and co-op experience that I really enjoyed. Definitely give it a try.

Picked this up for $30 and my friend and I completed it in a weekend, playing non-stop - couldn't put it down! Have to use timing and teamwork to advance through the levels and story - achievable by all skills levels. Great story, definitely some suspense too, and I would recommend at least one play through! There might be different endings as there are choices to be made throughout.
