TheSameCoin review the latest PS3 indie offering Ibb and Obb
Ibb and Obb is a strange beast. In a world where developers are trying to find the path that will lead them to the biggest pot of gold – whether that be the new wave of morphing any existing IP into a MOBA or the old style ‘Let’s make an MMO!’ – the devs at Sparpweed set out to make the game that they wanted to make. It is obvious that the world needed more games with proper co-op opportunities. There are lots of co-op games but few that are actually designed with co-op as a core mechanic and less still that have it as the main package and not an optional mode. It was a ballsy and risky move but one that deserves to be rewarded in spades.
Lyle Carr: "ibb & obb is a simple, fun and charming co-op experience with a variety of clever gravity-defying obstacles to overcome with a friend."
"If you're like me then you love a good challenge so here are a bunch of new indie games that offer rewarding and unique gameplay." - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums
Alex S. from Link-Cable writes: "But I have to say, my favorite type of game that has emerged on the Switch is the local co-op game. Namely the kind where you can just pass a Joy-Con to a buddy and get to playing. Games like Snipperclips, Heave-Ho, BoxBoy! + BoxGirl! and Vitamin Collection are fantastic little games that really show off what is probably the Switch’s best features – out of the box co-op multiplayer, and now you can add Ibb & Obb to the list. A game that originally release way back on the PlayStation 3 but may have found its forever home here on the Switch."
