A couple of levels physically tether you and your partner together, a novel little mechanic that isn’t explored with as much depth as it could’ve been. That’s not inherently a problem, but after getting along so well with the story mode, I would’ve liked to see more creativity here.
Some might take ten minutes to work your way through, while others are over before you know it. As you fill out your inventory with items like a pencil hat (for drawing) and sunglasses (for looking cool), you’ll bounce back and forth between the different zones.Īs for the two-player co-op mode, you’ll want to keep your expectations in check. The adventure spans multiple villages and includes a few boss-fighting sequences and mini-games. The fewer specifics I cover, the better - Pikuniku is more enjoyable if you don’t fully know what to expect - but the plot revolves around a suspicious figure who keeps handing out “free money” in exchange for precious natural resources. Actually, you’re not too bad! After talking it out, you’re uncaged and given the chance to poke around town, helping the villagers deal with various setbacks. Waking up in a cave as a lanky, armless, big-eyed red blob, you soon stumble into a quiet village and discover you’re the fearsome beast that legends speak of - or so everyone thought. While your interactions with the world are pretty much limited to jumping, kicking, and rolling around, you still have a lot of problem-solving potential inside you.
