My younger cousin comes over today (like every few months) and we will be playing some couch coop games over the weekend.
So far we tried a lot of games and found some great ones along the way. Sidescrollers work sometimes, but third person and isometric is better. And I won’t touch another twin stick shooter haha. Do y’all have any suggestions, it’s always so much work to find a good new game (as opposed to just going after steam review, buying, and returning within 30min of playtime because it sucked).
Honorable mentions:
- Swords of Ditto (literally no one plays this, but it’s a pretty neat co-op zelda-like
- Darksiders Genesis (hack n slash)
- It takes Two (co-op puzzle)
- Children of Morta (great roguelite)
I also bought Secret of Mana, maybe we’ll play this.
I’ve been playing Broforce with my buddy recently. Lots of shooting and blowing shit up platformer but pretty funny if you’re into the classic action movies like Rambo, Commando, etc.
Gears of War if you want to branch into 3rd person cover shooter. (Gears 5 is the only one on steam I think.)
The Lego games usually have couch co-op I think and I’ve enjoyed those a lot with younger people.
