When exploring the environments of It Takes Two, it is easy to be overwhelmed by the sheer number of objects, activities, and minigames that players are able to interact with. However, for players with a keen eye, there are several entertaining easter eggs that can be uncovered when exploring It Takes Two's varied worlds.
Players familiar with Hazelight Studio's previous title A Way Out may remember that the game featured a Zelda-related easter egg in the form of a cardboard master sword that could be obtained by interacting with a cuckoo clock. It seems only fitting that a Zelda easter egg can be found in It Takes Two in the cuckoo clock level.

After Cody and May make their way through the opening of the cuckoo clock level, they will eventually reach a large open area that is reminiscent of an old Bavarian village. In this open area, Cody and May are tasked with unlocking various gates and bridges that prevent their wooden dolls from proceeding. In this large area, players will find several optional minigames and activities to complete, so it is recommended for players to explore before proceeding to unlock the various gates for the wooden figures.
At the farthest end of the town- the opposite end of where Cody and May entered from- players will find the Helltower challenge and a horse racing minigame nearby. From the horse racing minigame, players must proceed towards a river that is located near a large red barn.
Next to the river, players will notice a large paddleboat that Cody and May can interact with. Jump into the paddleboat and proceed down the river before reaching a large cave that contains several owl statues inside.
Once inside the cave, players will eventually notice a small building with a dock on the righthand side. While it may not appear obvious, players can jump out of the paddleboat by pressing cancel, allowing them to access the building where they will find the Zelda easter egg.
Inside the building, players will find several jars from the Zelda series, that, when broken, contain rupees for the player to collect. Additionally, once players enter the building they will also unlock the "Force Triangulated" achievement/trophy. If players happened to have missed the easter egg, they can easily obtain it by simply reloading the checkpoint titled "Gates of Time."
Unfortunately, there is no additional reward for breaking all of the jars inside of the room, and the rupees collected cannot be utilized anywhere else in the game.
It Takes Two is available for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
