After making a game of the year winner with It Takes Two, the pressure is on Josef Fares to deliver again. So, did they do it? Let’s find out.

Review Round-Up:

The most impressive element ofĀ Split FictionĀ is how well it ties everything together. Its disparate locales and subplots all share a beautiful, unified art style with a story that melds perfectly with its gameplay. And each of its different mechanics and unique moments help make the others feel special since they are all so unique and fun.Ā  – Aaron Kluz, But Why Tho?

SplitĀ Fiction is an elevated take onĀ It Takes Two,Ā utilizing what worked and elevating the mechanics into something incredible. From the outset, I found the pacing to be fantastic, without a ton of time in between to breathe. – Bobby Pashalidis, Console Creatures

This deep connection between its story and your individual objectives is what elevates Split Fiction beyond just being an enjoyable whirlwind of ideas being chucked at you one after another. The sheer variety in what it asks of you here is astonishingly broad, and just as with It Takes Two, Split Fiction’s best moments come when Zoe and Mio must use their respective powers in tandem to help them both progress.Ā – Katherine Castle, EuroGamer
