My daughter Pearl and I continued our playthrough of It Takes Two today during my lunch hour. The game is definitely ramping up in difficulty as we progress deeper into it. Towards the end of the stream, Pearl refers to the second boss fight as "the hardest thing I've ever tried to do in a game". While it's not the hardest thing I've ever tried to do in a game, shepherding an eight-year-old through a platforming section that I can barely do myself isn't exactly easy.
We seem to have solved the sound issue from the first stream; Pearl no longer sounds like a stegosaurus breathing into the microphone. Keep an eye out in the days ahead for our continuing efforts. Even if I wanted to quit now, I don't think she would let me.
It Takes Two is now available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC via Origin and Steam. GN's Charlie Coleman will be reviewing It Takes Two in the coming weeks, so keep an eye out for that.
