Is there ANY way to play this game single?

[–] [email protected] 28 points 6 months ago (2 children)

No. It's two player cooperative gameplay.

One of you will be doing one thing, and the other person something to help them, and it's always varying what you do.

It's not like Brothers a Tale of Two Sons, or Kuri Kuri Mix.

Can you play it on a single computer or does it have to be two machines? If it's a single, do you need two controllers or how does that work?

It supports both online co-op as well as split screen with multiple controllers; at least it does on PC.

Yeah I played online with my bff, both on Xbox

I think it's intended to be played at the same computer. Two controllers, split screen. To be played in the same couch, with your partner. We loved it.

Does it have to be the same couch ? My couch is too small to fit two people

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

Your partner could sit on your leg/knee. Couch mandatory. Add-ons optional.

Two controllers. Split screen.

Damit. Ok, nevermind. Not buying it. :(

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Good news! If you find somebody else that has it, you can download and play it with them for free.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, I saw the free one. I'll check with some friends to see if anyone has it or the free one.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

It's worth it. Story is kind of cringe, but the co-op adds some unique gameplay.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

Yeah, that's why I actually wanted it. It looks like a game I'd enjoy.
