The team at Coldwood Interactive have took what was already a delightful platforming experience and improved it ten-fold thanks to the addition of a second character. Swinging your way through Unravel Two’s impressive levels with a friend is just a blast, whilst the improved level design and tighter controls just add to the experience. Unravel Two was a really pleasant surprise when it was revealed at E3 2018, and after playing it through to its conclusion, it’s actually exceeded my already high expectations. Whether playing on your own or with a trusty co-op partner, Unravel Two is simply a stunning adventure that you don’t want to miss out on.

Yarny is back for another lovely adventure trip through Swedish landscapes, this time accompanied by a second playable character. This results in some deep puzzles, great challenge rooms, and, bundled with the more precise controls this time around, a better game than the first one, whether you're playing alone or with a friend - but also one that's over just a bit too quickly.

Unravel Two will help you feel that fragile but precious thread once again. In its initial seven levels and numerous additional challenge stages, you will appreciate that delicate little piece of yarn. There will be moments when your instincts help you progress forward, and other times where you just need to feel the weight of that truss as it plummets onto the ground while you think of how to tackle that seemingly impossible challenge.

Like the first game, Yarnys explore a hub world (this time a Lighthouse) and enter pictures to play a level. There are seven story levels in total, each within 20-ish minutes. Additional challenge levels open up once you finish the main campaign. Oh, and it’s also done by about five hours or so.

Unravel Two may have lost its cathartic charm but in its place, you’ll find refined mechanics more befitting to its genre.

The original Unravel surprised many people when it originally released and Unravel Two is an excellent continuation of that game. The game may feel quite similar to the first one, but there is still plenty new here to enjoy for both those that played the first or those who didn’t and just want a fun new puzzle platformer.

I really suggest you to buy this amazing product named “Unravel 2”. Yeah, you could find it nor really long lasting, or even too simple for your “standards”, but the message behind the kindness of the actions of the two Yarny, ready to help each other, is maybe more important…and once you get to end of the lighthouse, you’ll understand why.

Though dialling back the frustration and amping up the breezy enjoyment is the key to Unravel Two being an overall more satisfying experience than its predecessor, the inclusion of co-op really is the pièce de résistance. It transforms an already endearing indie platformer into a gleeful social experience.

GREAT - Unravel Two is a charming game with compelling level design and fun gameplay mechanics. This isn’t your typical action-platform experience, as you’ll encounter plenty of small puzzles to solve to progress though the stages. Another great game for the Switch!

A delightful puzzle platformer that retains the charm of the original and improves everything else for a grand time.

Unravel Two is a worthy successor to the first Unravel game, but aside from the co-op, it doesn't really bring much new to the table. If you're fine with that or not is up to you.

Two are more than one, as topical as they are real. The decision to bet on two characters at the same time is a wise one. Coldwood Interactive conquered us with their message, and now they're doing it again with a big difference: Unravel Two is superior to its predecessor. The puzzles and use of physics remain intact while, surprisingly, we're faced with a much more dynamic and platforming experience than ever before. No matter how much you strain, nothing and no one can break the thread of love.

Unravel Two is too continuous that if we have already tried the first title, it does not contribute anything except being able to play it accompanied. Even so, you will like it if you like cooperative titles (be careful! It's only local), platforms and that make you think a little bit .

Unravel 2 is amazing thanks to clever puzzles and fantastic coop. It's beautiful and has some great gameplay, but playing alone lessens the experience. The music is the unsung hero, because it's majestic throughout the entire playthrough.

Despite the beautiful and fluent gameplay, the game has its flaws on the Switch.
