This new co-op game puts players in the roles of Cody and May, a human couple going through a rough patch. The two are turned into dolls by a magic spell and must now work with the eccentric Dr. Hakim to repair their relationship and return to the real world. Using a variety of different gameplay styles,\u00a0players must take part in a diverse collection of genre-blending challenges to save Cody and May. The lighthearted story of It Takes Two is said to blend gameplay and narrative in ways that push interactive storytelling forward.\u00a0<\/p>\n
