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.

    Honestly overcooked was stressful but manageable. The only time I wanted to strangle a friend (through my monitor) was in one of the “we were here” games because it was impossible to solve anything with him.

    Edit: Oh I saw bread and fred on a stream a while ago (Jerma), forgot about that one. I think chained together was very much inspired by it.
