Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
Would recommend playing co-op for the more advanced/upgraded levels.
30 of 266 sampled reviews raised it
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Much like PlateUp, the gameplay is mostly "do things separately there is no need for co-operation", and also like PlateUp, the progression is "unlock new things that make the game harder in a way that's less fun", which is really weird (contrast, Overcooked also progresses to harder but it does it by being new levels with harder tasks, not by the player-characters for some reason selecting to purchase things that make their own lives more difficult).

Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
I love that the difficulty of the game adjusts when playing in single and multiplayer and how no 2 replays are the same.
11 of 266 sampled reviews raised it
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
They should also let more people play on 1 keyboard. (e.g. 2 players on keyboard and 1 player on controller for 3 people coop) Its baffling that these simple yet critical improvements havent been implemented yet.
