What players say

Players love the chaotic co-op, where two characters tied by a rope must navigate obstacle courses without popping a balloon. It is frustrating yet hilarious with a friend, and the simple mechanics demand perfect teamwork. Most finish in about two hours, and some find the popping sound grating over time.
