![]() But even though I didn’t have anyone to travel with, I still managed to feel invested in the bond between the two Yarnys I was playing as, and watching them both struggle, endure, and triumph together was all I needed to fill in the blanks of my own story. Unfortunately, I don’t have anyone on hand to play local co-op with me-and Unravel Two does not have online play-so I had to play the entire game solo. The main appeal of this game’s story is the emotional pathos of traveling through these areas with a friend. There’s not a lot of focus on the actual plot of Unravel Two-the story is mostly made up of ghostly vignettes of people who used to be in the areas you’re traveling through. When he awakens, he finds a second Yarny who joins him on a journey to find.something. Unravel Two opens with Yarny being swept away at sea by a terrible storm, eventually being stranded at shore. Now that Unravel Two has made its way to Nintendo Switch, I’ve been able to see firsthand just what’s so special about this cute puzzle-platformer and its adorable protagonist, Yarny. The nervous but genuine enthusiasm from director Martin Sahlin convinced me how invested he and his colleagues at Coldwood Interactive were in delivering a game that was both touching and satisfying. Few indie games have managed to steal my heart as quickly as Unravel did when it was announced on-stage at E3 2015.
