A Way Out is more of an interactive movie than anything else, with a decent plot and some great audio. You must work together with your partner to escape prison and get revenge on the guy that set you both up. There are different ways to go about doing things, each with their own consequences, and you must both agree on the course of action. Teamwork and communication are a must.
This game has a little bit of everything. Puzzle solving, action sequences, and even some sports! Though not a long game, it certainly has replayability through making different choices and trying different things each time.
I just want to give a big thank you to the developers for making an innovative co-op experience and including local splitscreen when very few games these days are taking the time to include that option. Will be looking forward to future games from these guys!
With that being said, some cons:
-If you're looking for an open world concept, this is not the game. You're very limited in where you can go.
-The shooting/aim isn't the greatest
-It's really easy (but fun)
- You don't get to free fight. It's more so push x, push y at designated times.
Overall, this was a lot of fun and I am glad I purchased it.
The characters of Leo and Vincent both exude charisma and have their own interesting backstories and quirks. Excellent voice acting as well. There is a good variety of things to do and ways you can interact with your teammate. Unfortunately, that leads to one of the only negatives I have with the game, which is the gunplay. It’s serviceable but don’t expect it to be on par with a typical shooter, though it only makes up only a small portion of the game. A jack of all trades is a master of none is true here.
Ultimately, if you have a friend to play it with, this is absolutely one of the first games I would recommend. It’s a good price for a 6-8 hour experience and there’s multiple endings. A unique and highly enjoyable game.
The game plays like a movie and there is a lot to do. Plenty of laughs playing with a friend and provides fun trip through several game genres such as FPS, timing games, driving, and a bit of stealth. Graphics are great as it uses Unreal engine.
The cons are glitches, bad AI, questionable dialogue and storyline and small split screens in both couch/local and online 2player.
All in all, worth $15 or so used but not the full price of admission.
