PICO PARK

PICO PARK

TECOPARK Studios launched the charming puzzle platformer PICO PARK in 2019, and it finally debuted on Steam in May 2021. As a cooperative multiplayer game, PICO PARK invites you to join forces with friends to solve engaging puzzles. The title can be accessed on both the Nintendo Switch and Windows platforms, and while it does come with a purchase price, there are no further costs for extra in-game content after the initial buy.

Gameplay

In PICO PARK, you can collaborate with up to eight players in a single session. The game dynamically adjusts its levels based on the number of participants, ensuring a seamless experience whether you have two or a full party of eight players. The game features several modes, such as "World Mode," where cooperation is key to finding keys and exits, navigating challenges and supporting each other through various hindrances. "Endless Mode" offers ongoing cooperation with a goal of attaining higher scores, while "Battle Mode" introduces competitive play by pitting teams against one another.

Graphics

In PICO PARK, players are treated to a quintessential side-scrolling platformer adventure, augmented by graphics that are both bright and detailed, which serve to amplify the fun of the PICO PARK. The game's colorful visuals are not only eye-catching but also lightweight on system resources, requiring a modest 4GB of RAM and 100MB of storage space. PICO PARK supports Split Screen mode, allowing for shared play on a single device, making the game a joy to download and dive into.

Controls

The controls in PICO PARK are straightforward and should become second nature after one to two hours of play. Despite the simplicity, the game remains dynamic and engaging, demanding focus and swift decision-making from the player.

Cross-platform play

While PICO PARK is available for both Nintendo Switch and Windows, it currently lacks cross-platform capabilities, meaning players cannot interact across different systems. There is hope, however, that future updates might introduce this sought-after feature to the gaming community.
