Seriously, what's the harm with allowing an account that will lose its save data after being logged out to share in some of your cosmetics. Guests will join the game with absolutely no customisation options, even though you might be completely decked out. I will say though, the lack of shared cosmetics between local accounts is one area of the cooperative Sackboy experience I'm not a huge fan of. You might be thinking, what's the point of that feature? Well, considering the points you collect toward the score are not exactly shared, you will be fighting over the points to be able to show your worth in the endgame screen, and to be able to hold the trophy in the picture stage at the end of a level. You can pick up other Sackboys to throw them to unreachable heights or even backhand other players, to launch them a few feet and effectively stun them. To accentuate the cooperative experience, Sackboy multiplayer brings some new mechanics to play around with. You might be thinking, can I cheese the levels as a solo to get the trophies and 100% the game? In theory, yes, but compared to the level of challenge Sackboy usually offers, attempting to solo these levels with two controllers will prove nigh on impossible at times. That might be to progress to the next zone, or simply to acquire the collectible Orbs, either way teamwork is necessary to complete these levels. In these, you will be expected to work as a unit at pretty much all times. Sure, working as a duo, or more, will make it easier in reaching certain areas or doing certain things (an extra pair of hands always helps), but the levels made for cooperative play are the gems that make Sackboy's multiplayer all the more exciting. The reason for that is how the gameplay itself as a co-op experience is tailored around teamwork and puzzle solving, you won't be expected to do some crazy platforming or thrust into overwhelming combat - that's pretty much the Sackboy promise.Ĭonsidering Sackboy is built to be played as a solo title, bringing an extra player to a lot of the main story levels won't add all that much depth to the game. ![]() Between the simple mechanics and smaller yet detailed levels that eliminate the need for split-screen, you can easily throw someone of pretty much all gaming knowledge into the game, and they will probably be just fine. On the surface, this game really is exceptionally well designed as a co-op title. When you're all in the game, the next stage is teaching your co-op partner the intricacies, which for Sackboy basically means how to run, jump, smack and grab. That could be in the middle of a level or in the overworld, it really doesn't matter and doing so is as simple as just connecting another DualSense and then pressing X. Sackboy: A Big Adventure uses drop-in / drop-out local co-op, meaning you can add or take away players whenever you want. Today however, I have the equipment, so I recruited a partner and we headed off into the wonderful realm of Craftworld. Back in November, I covered this new Sumo Digital title and spoke about its adorable art style and how completely unique it is to the Little Big Planet experiences we have become accustomed to, but I never tested multiplayer due to the online being unavailable at launch and myself lacking a second DualSense controller to try locally.
