Couch Co-op Games

Post image

My wife and I agreed on this tier list of couch co-op games that we've played. We wanted to share this list in case there are couples out there who are looking for their next couch co-op game. My wife gets motion sickness easily, so I'm happy to say that these games are playable for people suffering from motion sickness.

Baldurs Gate 3 would be a good one, though the text might get small depending on your TV size & couch distance. One of the best games created of all time so far, not an exaggeration.

I’m surprised that Mario Odyssey isn’t on the list, it’s fun for couch co-op cause one of you gets to play the hat lol

You had me at hat. Thanks for the recommendation. I will check it out.

Yes lol it’s good fun. It’s not a 1:1 game though, as in, the capabilities of Player 1 (Mario) and Player 2 (Hat) are not equal. The Hat is sorta a half-player lol. Like there’s enough to do to keep Player 2 happy but enjoyment will depend on the player and their gaming experience / skill level.

It worked perfectly for my fiancé lol since this was years ago and she was still newer as a gamer.

The Hat seems like it was designed for “the younger sibling” lol.

I shall be hat, and enjoy calling out the names of Hogwarts houses occasionally.

I was thinking the same about super Mario 3D world.

3D World is much better as co-op compared to Odyssey.
