Title. I’d like to play more with friends and family, and I’d like to do that IRL. It’s gotta be available on PC, though, I don’t own a console.

It takes two is amazing, but AFAIK only allows for two players.
Magicka and Magicka 2 are magic casting games that are absolutely hilarious and will have you freezing, soaking, burning, crushing and electrocuting your team mates all as you frantically try to combat enemies.
- Absolum
- Brotato
- Crawl
- Ember Knights
- For the King 1&2
- Lovers in a dangerous spacetime

- TMNT: Splintered fate
These are all I could recall for now and since I don’t know what type of games you prefer specifically I just dumped a list of the games that I enjoyed playing with my GF and friends recently. Hope it helps!
Terraria. Seriously. Do a blind play through without a wiki. Super duper fun. It can be short or hundreds of hours, depending on your style. Great for groups as well, as it requires a surprising amount of team work.
Death road to Canada is always my groups go to for a couch co-op session.
Overcooked 1 and 2
Yes! That is always my go to game with up to 4 players.
We’re currently playing Sunderfolk, it’s a great game so far, kids and grown ups (it’s got a bunch of reading and strategy, so it depends on the kid)
As someone else said, Jackbox games are plenty fun, much lighter, each party pack has 4-5 different games, and they go on sale often on steam. Look through the videos for each pack to get an idea of the games it comes with.
Sunderfolk is so good!
My boys and I played DuckGame an entire 3day weekend once. I set up 2 TVs so we could team up in Fortnite with a PS4 and a Switch, but honestly we played DuckGame more. I spent this summer with my 16yo playing Divinity Original Sin 2 coop split screen. It was fun until Act 3. Can’t recommend it, but ymmv.
Oh, when my kids were little we put a lot of time in Amazing Frog. And Minecraft, obv.
Goat simulator 3
For real.
It has 4-player local split-screen drop-in co-op.
The Trine games are pretty fun with multiple players if I remember correctly
At least 1 and 2 are, I can’t speak for any past those as I haven’t played them.
Plus, in the remaster of 1 they have a setting so people can play duplicates of the characters, so no more “arguments” about who gets to be
spidermanthief.
What type of game are you looking for?
Depends on the game type you’re looking for. Ive enjoyed playing stardew valley with my friends. You can play side by side in person if you connect an extra controller. Alternately, if they go home and also have the game installed you can play internet coop from afar as well with the same save and same profile.
Another vote for Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime.
If you like electronic dance music, Just Shapes and Beats.
If you liked Eye of the Beholder and wish there were a co-op Minecraft-visuals version, it’s Barony.
Heavenly Bodies.
Good party games:
- Ultimate Chicken Horse
- Gang Beasts
- Unspottable
More intense coop:
- Gauntlet
- Cuphead
- Spelunky
I’ve heard good things about DuneCrawl, but I’ve never played it.
If you are looking for a horror movie type experience, Until Dawn and The Quarry are great. You pass the controller when the character changes, but they’re designed to be enjoyed by a group.
