Any sale recommendations for co-op games or remote play together games that are on sale?
For the more chillax remote co-op, these are the games I’ve played with my family. (Wife and kids)
Valheim - survival building stuff.
Grounded - survival building stuff but it’s Honey I shrunk the kids.
Raft - survival building stuff but on a raft.
Dinkum - building stuff like Animal Crossing but Australia
Enshrouded - survival building stuff but Zelda Breath of the Wild
V Rising - building stuff but vampires and MOBA
Bone’s Cafe is a slower non roguelite cafe game were you get to kill and cook your customers. It has been lots of fun.
Kingdom 2 Crowns is a great little game of frustration but it’s only 2 people but it’s pretty and the soundtrack slaps and it’s a fun settlement building and protection game.
Everyone is already recommending Hazelight Studio games but I will jump on that too cause they are amazing.
And just to shake things up:
The Lego games. They are classic and usually a good time. Campy humor. Murder your friends. And they are pretty cheap as the whole collections these days.
Bone’s Cafe and Kingdom 2 Crowns is right up my alley! Thank you
Make sure to read the Tips in Bones Cafe if you pick it up. It felt like a lot of things clicked after that and it made my murders a little cleaner for the health inspector!
No tips for Kingdom 2 Crowns, really just hope you enjoy it. I sunk so many hours into that with others.
I enjoyed “It Takes Two” quite a bit. “A Way Out” is another co-op game from the same publisher that I’ve only heard good things about.
Brotato is always a recommendation. Single player or co-op doesn’t matter. Both modi are great
Full Metal Furies is a very fun “beatemup-style” game very much focused on unique character abilities and cooperation. The writing is very funny, and each character operates very different. Currently $5.
It’s a game from 2014, but I love Double Dragon Neon which is 50% off. I have songs from the game in my regular music playlist they’re so good. I enjoy it more than the recent Double Dragon Gaiden. Great coop.

Rotwood is a good one. Co-op Roguelite beat-em-up from the Don’t Starve guys.
Lethal Company is just lots of fun, we’ve gotten too much time out of that dumb game.
Outward is a fantastic old-school RPG for two people, has all the traits of a game from 2002
Palworld - haven’t hopped back into this one since its launch but have been meaning to. But this type of game is definitely not underrepresented on the market.
PlateUp! if you’re not worried about getting into a fight over how awful your buddy is at making food
Rogue Heroes: Ruins of Tasos is a Zelda-like RPG that’s a surprising amount of fun for how simple the game first looks.
Other bigname recs: Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands, Baldur’s Gate 3, Sea of Thieves, Deep Rock Galactic, Stardew Valley

Outward is definitely not for everyone, but it felt to me like playing Morrowind for the first time. Not in the dialogue or character writing but in terms of looking at a weird thing on the horizon and asking myself ‘WTF IS THAT’.

My wife and I bounced after the brutal difficulty and made it to the next biome.
It was kind of fun that every fight was a life or death experience. But we never felt like we were getting stronger or things ever got easier.
I didn’t mind, as I play Dark Souls. But for my wife who like to max-level then steamroll things, this was driving her crazy.

Yeah the only progression is in terms of gear really. There are some skills you can buy but they don’t seem to matter as much as a good weapon or shield.

My wife and I loved Escape Academy. The narrative structure made it more interesting. And the puzzles were more sillier in nature, like solving things while escaping a flood. Or trying to land a airplane.
We bounced off of Escape Simulato.
