Cute visuals, and it is satisfying to solve the puzzles, but the controls felt poorly optimized for the Switch. I didn't know this was co-op before grabbing it, and while you can finish the game as a single player, some of the more finicky puzzles are basically impossible.

It's fun to play with your partner and solve the puzzles.
However, the game controllers are poorly designed, jumping can be a hell many times (quite a factor for a platform game). Also the angles sometimes to solve the puzzles are infuriating on how they want us get it. I played it on switch and there was some crashes and bugs like being stuck in a part that I had to restart the game.

The first and second worlds of the castle were quite fun (the bridge and the explosion) but the third was a pain in the ass.
The game animation is not the best, looks like a cellphone game most of it and the narration is annoying and corny.

Apart of the negative sides, the puzzles are clever and it worth to play in local co-op.

The nerve of this game to come out on Valentine's Day. Do not, I repeat, DO NOT play this with your significant other. You thought overcooked together is hard? play this.

But side note, puzzles are actually clever and the game looks better than what the trailer showed.
