Let’s take a look at some of these reviews:<\/p>\n

The Untitled Goose Game team returns with a funny, exciting, and deeply rewarding multiplayer adventure that combines knockabout fun with some surprisingly big ideas.<\/p>\n

Big Walk takes fundamental and timeless video game concepts\u2013obstacles and incentives for clearing them\u2013and, through an intensely focused co-op experience, shapes them into something singularly rewarding, supremely mysterious, and totally unforgettable.<\/p>\n

Big Walk is a game that is nothing short of outstanding in its design, a co-op adventure that feels like you\u2019re 12 years old again and venturing across those fields with your buddies. Its strict reliance on communication and clever puzzle design makes it one of the most rewarding games I think I\u2019ve ever played, but its technical shortcomings on the Switch 2 version do take the shine off a touch. Thankfully, it\u2019s not enough to break what is one of the most unique and intriguing games released this decade, if you\u2019re willing to learn to communicate.<\/p>\n

Many of the elements that made Goose Game great are present in Big Walk. There\u2019s a lot of walking, a lot of talking, and a lot of shenanigans. While playing Big Walk, however, I also kept thinking of a very different game. The sense of discovery and joy are much like what made The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild<\/a> so special, whether that was finding a kooky way to solve a puzzle, stumbling upon an extremely useful item, or climbing to the highest peak and taking in the view. But unlike Breath of the Wild, Big Walk let me share the world, and those moments of discovery, with my best friend.<\/p>\n

There are a lot of multiplayer games that feel like a fun idea that I just so happen to be able to play with friends. Big Walk is different; it\u2019s explicitly about playing with friends. Everything we experienced in these three days was designed to test our bonds more than our brains. It\u2019s a retreat full of trust falls and communication exercises. I\u2019m sad to leave it all behind \u2014 I don\u2019t know that I\u2019ll ever be able to experience it the same way now that I know the puzzle solutions. But I\u2019m leaving this island with a handful of warm memories, floating inside my head like scattered diary pages. I will always cherish this adventure I got to take with my friends. And I now know to never leave the house without a laser pointer.<\/p>\n
