    Operation: Tango provides such a fun series of asymmetric spy action to share with a friend that it’s a shame it ends way too soon.

    Operation Tango is a great cooperative experience. This "spy simulator" basically offers two games in one and thus manages to make up for the limited number of missions and low longevity.

    While it lasts, Operation: Tango is great fun. The puzzles are engaging and never too simple to solve, but they are also not so difficult they become frustrating. Operation: Tango forces players to find new ways of communicating, often leading to humorous quips and miscommunications. For what it is, Operation: Tango is snappy, clever, well-designed, and incredibly engaging. Fans of co-op puzzlers should consider trying their hand at this high-tech espionage.

    Operation: Tango is a clever and appealing take on a co-op spy experience with eye-catching style and excellent music. It’s short and not all that replayable, and some of the puzzles are annoyingly silly when compared to its best challenges and conundrums, but it’s still well worth a play with a friend with patience and a keen eye for detail.

    With Operation: Tango, Clever Plays delivers here a refreshing production that will satisfy lovers of cooperative experiences. The game, with its mastered asymmetric gameplay, simply offers two totally different and yet complementary ways to play. Unfortunately, the proposal, while short, runs out of steam somewhat over time, repeatedly featuring the same mini-games or introducing increasingly confusing objectives. Despite its small flaws, the little creation deserves your full attention, especially if you are looking for an experience to punctuate one or two evenings of your summer vacation.

    A co-op game that's alternatively tense and funny, and occasionally both. [Issue#360, p.122]

    Operation Tango gets the look and feel of being a secret agent team absolutely right, with a cool soundtrack to boot. But it’s held back by its hit-and-miss gameplay, which can range from super cool to frustrating. A longer campaign may have let the gameplay expand and deepen, but with only 6 short missions and little replay value, it ends up feeling a little shallow. The upside is, this makes the game a perfect candidate for some DLC.

    Операция танго, это не плохая игра, для двоих, это можете быть вы с другом, или со своей второй половинкой!
    Игра не долгая, зато какая насыщенная, в одной миссии, вам придется работать с напарником, уворачиваясь от врагов, и во время работы с напарником он должен следить, чтоб тебя не убили с зади, я бы сказал очень жестко!
    Так же есть какие ни какой сюжет, немного истории аля киберпанк, хотя это скорее действительно как будет выглядеть 2033г, на мой взгляд, и мне нравится, но черт возьми очень уязвимы станем мы, для всяких хакеров.
    И еще как для айтищника, мне было очень интересно проходить данную игру!

    I started and beat the game with no guide in about 6 hours after playing though twice (Once with each character). I enjoyed all the puzzles,I started and beat the game with no guide in about 6 hours after playing though twice (Once with each character). I enjoyed all the puzzles, but my friend and I experience about three minor glitches that caused us to quit the mission and try from a checkpoint. Overall I think it is a great co-op game that people need to try out. Expand

    Gut umgesetztes Spiel!

    Es macht echt Spaß, man muss sich manchmal sehr viel in kurzer Zeit durchgeben oder manchmal auch einfach das Richtige, wobei man nicht immer direkt weiß was der andere braucht und muss das erstmal gemeinsam herausfinden.

    Wenn man später mal die Rollen tauscht versteht man sich gleich viel besser und denkt sich, oh, ja gut wenn er nur das zur Verfügung hatte, aber gerade das sich gegenseitige Angeschreie macht doch so viel Spaß ;-)

    Pretty nice gameplay but imbalanced difficulty. Some mini-games are extremely simplistic, others make you bang your head against the walls andPretty nice gameplay but imbalanced difficulty. Some mini-games are extremely simplistic, others make you bang your head against the walls and yet others are dull. Though what seems to be a frustrating bug met here : https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1225177519?t=02h02m33s I plan to play this again once or twice.
    I recommend it, but not at full price ;)

    Coop que cumple su función.

    Juego con un coste inferior a 20€ que además "se reparte" si quieres entre dos personas, ya que cuenta con el pase amigo gratuito.

    Yo lo he jugado con un amigo, por lo que no he probado la opcion online que trae para jugar con otras personas, que la veo bien pero no creo que sea el mejor enfoque para este tipo de juegos.

    Hemos tardado 4 horas en pasarnos el título, sin buscar ayuda de ningún tipo y bloqueándonos en alguna cosilla menor, por lo que sin eso quizás te lo puedas pasar en 3 horas.

    ¿Corto? Para mí no, es lo que buscas en una experiencia de este tipo.

    ¿Y por qué un 6 de nota?
    No destaca en muchísimos campos, por lo que un seis me parece una nota muy buena ya para este juego.

    Lo mejor que tiene son las situaciones que genera para pasarlo bien con un amigo y algún puzzle de habilidad que está bien.

    Por lo demás está decente el apartado artístico y poco más, ni hay mucho detalle en los escenarios, ni tiene nada espectacular, ni grandes animaciones, ni música, ni historia etc...

    Juego más que decente para pasar una tarde con un colega.
