Dec. 2024

"Tick Tock: A Tale for Two" is like an escape room for besties - but with fewer snacks and more brain-bending puzzles. The game drops you and your partner into a mysterious clockwork world crafted by a sinister watchmaker. Separated in-game but connected by your words, you unravel a story of family secrets, time travel, and cryptic puzzles. Intriguing, a little eerie, and very satisfying. My friend and I went from ‘we got this’ to ‘wait, what did you just say?!’ in record time. Communication is key, so prepare for some hilarious misunderstandings. 10/10 would get mildly frustrated with my friend again!

It's alright, but definitely not worth the full price.

This game shone a spotlight on the communication skills of my bestie and I. They are bad. This game however is a good bit of fun and an interesting premise. I need more asymmetrical co-op games in my life.

i really liked this game. I had to play both sides since i had no one else to play with, but it was still fun

May 2024

Enjoyable short puzzle/ escape room game for two players, each on their own device. Great for a rainy afternoon or a winter night with your partner on the couch. Each of you will need their own copy of this game!
