The gameplay is fairly simple, with the controls adding an interesting and difficult element to this tale of two brothers. Each thumbstick on the controller is mapped to a brother; you have to navigate your way to the Tree of Life, to find some of that life saving water and save their sick father. It’s a journey of emotional turmoil and challenging puzzles, for which it received critical acclaim.
A mobile version is also in development and is scheduled for launch in summer for iOS and on Android devices. This shows the dexterity of what is a cute platformer with characters you get attached to.
The original idea for A Tale of Two Sons was created by a Swedish filmmaker, Josef Fares. He’s got another game coming out soon, too, which is going to be published by EA.
