Is it still worth playing?

Two players play on local or online split screen, with both screens shown next to each other, because there is no single player option. It is a 2018 cooperative action adventure for PlayStation 4, Windows and Xbox One, directed by Josef Fares. The players control Leo and Vincent, two convicted prisoners who have to break out of prison and stay on the run from the authorities. The story of both is told at the same time, so progress may not be synchronized, and one player may control a character while the other watches a cutscene. The players have to cooperate to progress, and each situation can be approached in different ways. A story that needs two people to tell it is still a good reason to find a partner.
