\"\"<\/a>Jeff and Debra are two kiwi birds who have just applied for a post office job in a Podunk town in the middle of the Australian Outback.\u00a0 Unfortunately the mail room isn\u2019t designed for two pint-sized kiwis, so they\u2019ll really have to work together and use their beaks and butts to type out telegrams, mail letters, and sort inbound and outbound packages!\u00a0 KeyWe is a co-op action game available for most current consoles, but reviewed on Switch here.<\/p>\n

In the main game, you can choose to go co-op or single player, where you\u2019ll switch between the two kiwis.\u00a0 You can also go online.\u00a0 It\u2019s highly recommended that you play with another person, though, because the game is nigh impossible to get good ratings in single player mode.\u00a0 You will have to work together to complete various activities.\u00a0 One is typing out telegrams on a makeshift keyboard.\u00a0 You\u2019ll even have to have one kiwi hold down the shift button for capital letters!\u00a0 Gives new meaning to the phrase \u2018hunt and peck!\u2019\u00a0 Another game has you sending messages using stickers with words on them, ransom note style, and then sending them off via courier emu.\u00a0 And another game has you sorting packages and letters for customers.\u00a0 If you can complete these tasks in a certain amount of time, you\u2019ll earn stamps.\u00a0 You can spend these stamps on costumes for the kiwis or collectables for their nests.\u00a0 The post office uses a lot of makeshift style contraptions that give it a Wallace and Gromit feel to it, so that was charming.<\/p>\n

The game does have a few problems, though.\u00a0 Again, you\u2019ll only want to play this one with friends, as single player gets a bit tedious, boring, and impossible to get good ratings in the stages.\u00a0 The text is also way too small, and there is so much going on and to look at in the games that it can feel a bit overwhelming.\u00a0 Luckily you can view a tutorial before each game.\u00a0 So yeah, only get this one if you have a lot of gamer friends around.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Kid Factor:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Nothing violent or objectionable here.\u00a0 If your kiwi falls off a desk, they\u2019ll just reappear at the top of the stage and parachute down.\u00a0 Reading skill is a must for the text, and younger gamers may find it too difficult.\u00a0 KeyWe is rated E for Everyone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
