Make Mine a Double for the Fun of It

Hazelight is one of the truly great studios who has continued to evolve, get better and achieve acclaim. The Swedish game studio (known as Starbreeze at the time) found success with the release of Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons back in 2013 and decided to focus on strictly two-player co-op games.

I thoroughly enjoyed “Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons” when I played it nearly a decade ago, even though I played through it by myself. This time around, with “It Takes Two” generating enough buzz to earn a coveted spot on the MeltedJoystick Games of the Year list for 2021. I …
