Co-operative Video Games
(the app is forcing me to put a link so I put Timesplitters 2 gameplay cuz this is mostly a text post)
Hi everyone! I've been feeling frustration about games lately, remembering experiences I had as a kid playing co-op story games with my friends, like Timesplitters and Destroy All Humans, etc.
Modern multiplayer games sometimes have some co-op elements, but many of them are party games like Human Fall Flat or Among Us, or big Battle Royales or Multiplayer shooters. The co-op ones seem to only be survival games like The Forest.
I'm always looking for good co-op experiences to play with my friends, but it's hard to find what I am looking for. I recently played It Takes Two with my partner and that was so wonderful.
Does anyone know any games like what I am looking for? It seems these kinds of games are so few and far between, sadly.
Dont Starve Together and Overcooked are my jam with wife :3
Tried it with my wife, but unfortunately the game got frustratingly hard pretty quickly...
I recommend giving Plate Up! a look. As good as it is, we also found Overcooked incredibly overwhelming/frustrating. Plate up is much better in that area, we feel. It eases you into the more hectic situations and you actually have agency over the design of the restaurant.
Looks promising, I will make sure to give it a try! Thank you!
