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.

My family loves:

  • Spelunky (sidescroller Indiana-Jones-themed platformer action-roguelite)

  • Pikmin 3 (3D silly minion-bossing treasure hunting)

  • River City Girls (sidescrolling beat-em-up with amazing soundtrack)

  • Moving Out (3D "goofy physics" furniture-moving obstacle course)

  • Kirby and the Lost World (3D action adventure)

  • Stardew Valley (isometric farm sim)

All of these are fully coöp from the beginning.
