It is great to help with improve your communication and team building skills and also strengthen the relationship between the two players. The puzzles were a little bit tough in some places as it is all oriented around how well you can communicate with your partner/friend. I love the fact that it allows you to try either side of the story so you can switch roles each time you play. We both loved it and are planning to get the full game soon. ### 5/5 — Super jeu de coop ! *2024-08-23* Mesdames et messieurs, bonjour, ceci est un jeu de coop et cela est précisé, si vous souhaitez jouer seul passer votre chemin et aller vers un autre de leur fantastique jeu!
