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.
- Moving Out
- Lovers in a dangerous Spacetime
- A way out (sensible topics though, violence/jail)
Phogs - simple puzzle platformer where you play an end of a 2 headed snake dog.
Lovers in a dangerous space time - share control of your spaceship to rescue cute animals. Take turns driving, manning the weapons or shields. Top down camera
Overcooked 1 and 2 - flammable chaotic cooking adventures. Top down camera.
Trine 1-4 are all pretty decent for some side scrolling puzzle action platforming.
Diablo 3 (on console as pc doesn’t have local for some stupid reason) is a great action RPG.
Untitled Goose Game — Surprised it wasn’t mentioned.
Plateup! - Overcooked but a bit different in a way my wife and I find more enjoyable.

I’ll second Portal 2, and other’s mentions of Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime.
It Takes Two is fun, but if you’re paying attention to the story I found it to be a bit preachy about what the writer thinks a good relationship should be.
Smash Bros and Mario Kart are both competitive not co-op.
