I just finished playing this creepy cute looking game with my friend. And wow, it got me speechless, really. I never thought I'd like this game that much.
➼The story : -The writing is beautiful, well done, interesting and the whole plot of the game is really good. We, my friend and I, both enjoyed dubbing the character we played, was fun doing it!
➼The gameplay : -The puzzles can make you think, use your brain or make you try multiple times but it's not that hard honestly and most of the puzzles are original, using different techniques ! You also need to have a good communication with the person you playing with!
➼The design/art style of the game : -The visual is so pretty and cosy looking, making the game even better! I loved to look at the background !
➼The choices : -Choices don't really matter to be honest but it's still a good thing in the game ( I personally love doing choices in games ! )
➼Music : -The soundtracks are amazing, good to listen, relaxing and kinda go in a nostalgic way.
➼Details : -I really like the mute system when playing with my friends and when one of you is done with the cutscene, you have to wait for the other while playing a game into this one!
➼The main characters : -The way we see the relationship between the two character getting even better and in a lovely way is just so wholesome! Their dialogues and interactions between them is good and get you attached to both of them!
➼Extra : -You can play this game twice and it's highly recommended ( Mostly if you want to see the secret ending ! ) Playing the character you didn't chose in the beginning to see his POV right after you first finish the game is a good thing in my opinion aswell !
Me and my friend also spend a lot of time laughing together, being silly and try to kill each other ( mostly me with her lmao- )
But honestly this game is kind of how, people, can see the world in a different angle, look at the same thing and see it differently but still manage to be together as friends/siblings/lovers and work along !
I hugely recommend this game to anyone that can have a good friend to play with and that is looking for a beautiful adventure to play !
Yet, note that, this game isn't family friendly at all. It's cute and wholesome but it also contains : -violence, gore, death, murder, glitching effect and parents bad relationship issues.
So be warned and careful about it! Others way, have fun playing it and enjoy your time!

Bokura is a Co-Op Puzzle Platformer that requires 2 Players to play.
It's visual style is pretty good for both Players.
Player One's style is pretty cute and reminiscent of a coloring book, but it gets a bit disturbing. Player Two's style is postmodern and robotic, where the disturbing parts are abstracted by imagining what would happen to robots if they were to endure the same things as their counterparts from Player One's perspective.
The story captures your interest by beginning with the Player describing their regrets about a past event. From then on, the game takes place in the past, leading up to the regrettable event. The story peaks when the Players get separated and experience different things. These situations climaxes in a decision that both players must make together. To make this decision, the players need to discuss their experiences to reach a consensus.
The platforming and puzzles start out quite easy but ramp up over time, introducing new mechanics and integrating the need to communicate with the other player. At times, one player's vision becomes stationary, preventing them from seeing or hearing where they actually are. The player who can still see then has to guide the "blinded" player through some platforming sections and puzzles. It's a cool concept but might get a little stale for the "blinded" player.
The writing and translations are very good, always fitting the tone of the story. We experienced the game in both English and German. Both translations are excellent and were done with a lot of passion. The experience is even better if both players read aloud the text that their characters are saying. Doing this provides a good sense of immersion that I can only recommend.
In my opinion, this is a perfect game to play with a friend, offering a great time with communication, puzzle-solving, and an intriguing story. I can only strongly recommend this game.

I got this game for my friend and I and desperately wanted to love it. I wanted to love it SO BADLY. It seemed like such an interesting concept and I thought the artwork was very cute. After playing it, I can safely say it would have been an average but enjoyable game if it didn't suffer from some very annoying fatal flaws. The story was okay, but was unsatifying and left a lot of details vague without knowing that this game is actually part of a pre-existing story. Additionally, a lot of the puzzles were unintuitive and frustrating. I love puzzles and challenging puzzles are rewarding-- but a lot of the puzzles we struggled with didn't feel like they were made to be challenging in a fun way. Sometimes they just felt cheap. Even with all of that, had it not been for the constant server errors, I probably would have recommended this game just as something fun to play with a friend for a few hours! But the server errors were a nightmare to deal with.
I have no idea what's wrong with this game, but it made what should have been a MAX six hour playthrough sixteen hours instead. My friend and I spent most of the game just trying to reconnect and catch up to where we were in the puzzles before it booted us off. By the end of the game, we were just clicking as fast as possible to try getting to an autosave location or getting through an unskippable cutscene before we were disconnected from each other again. Even though I had a good time with my friend, it was not because of this game. BOKURA was really a hassle to finish and get all the achievements for since it fought us the entire way through.
