I love this community, got so many recomendations I decided to update the first post! Sorry if I couldn’t reply to everyone, Jerboa almost exploded, haha. But I’ll upvote all your contributions now that I’m on PC.
Original post
I like to play on the same computer with my bf, and recently we’ve started to get tired of MAME since we’ve been playing our faves on repeat for so long.
The other game we play is Spelunky, since is the only local co-op game I have on Steam. I ask because Steam summer sales are close and I can give him a surprise :D
Thanks!
My list of split screen or couch co op PC games:
Basketball classics
Castle crashers
Cuphead
A Hat in Time
Katanari damacy reroll
Lego games (marvel, LOTR, Indiana Jones, star wars are my top 4)
Overcooked
Portal 2
Rocket League
Sonic All Star Racing Transformed
Spiritfarer
Strikey Sisters
Trine 2
Wingspan
And emulator roms for 2 players:
Secret of Mana
Zombies Ate my Neighbors
Game show games (family feud, wheel of fortune, you don’t know jack)
What a big list, thanks, I’ll edit the main post to add all of your recs!
Spirit farer is a lovely game to play together.
Hey there!
Some games that we played:
- Overcooked 1 & 2, save the world by cooking in absurd environments. Shouting inclusive. (It’s really fun, I promise!)
- Ibb & Obb - a fun little puzzle game
- Guacamelee was fun too, but we never finished it.
- Battleblock Theater is nice too! But I’m not sure if it’s possible to play on one machine. So if you both have computers this is definitely possible.
- Unravel Two - it’s fun! We haven’t finished it yet, but it’s a cute (and a bit sad sometimes) jump & run / puzzle platformer
- A Way Out was great too, really great story, but it’s not cozy.
- … and I noticed a lot of people gave you already some good games, while I was searching my library. xD
What I haven’t tried yet but want to in the future:
- Moving Out - it looks similar to Overcooked, so I hope it will be fun
- Spiritfarer
Guacamelee is Free on Epic until Thursday this week for anyone that wants it.
Moving out is hilarious and fun but it does take quite a bit of teamwork to get the gold medals.
Moving out is great! Less stressful than overcooked but equally chaotic.
Recently picked up PlateUp, can definitely recommend that one as well. It’s like a roguelike Overcooked. If your relationship survives this surely you can handle it all
Wingspan is a very solid port of the board game.
Since Wingspan is on there, why not put tabletop simulator on there too? It has got pretty much the same set of features in regards to multiplayer.
On that note, both of these games also have a “pass controller around” feature as well.
Remember if you’re a PC gamer, emulation is a great place to look for couch co-op since PC gaming seems to be rather averse to split screen unfortunately. There are a lot of extremely good split-screen games on PS2/GC that will look and run significantly nicer on PC.

The entire Tales Of series EXCEPT Arise

The local co-op version of Untitled Goose Game is hillarious, highly recommended
Stardew Valley! Great split screen coop!
Gang Beasts is ludicrous fun! Flailing around, grabbing your little clayboy opponent and yeeting them off the side of a lighthouse will never not be fun. Definitely best played with a controller, though.
Not real co-op, but my wife and I have played hundreds of hours of Wildermyth. Its an rpg with generative elements. We love reading out the lines of the characters in terrible accents. The battlr system is turn based so you’ve plenty of time to discuss what to do next.
Human Fall Flat is a Gang Beasts style platform puzzler
Overcooked 2 has better controls than 1
Out of Space is like Moving Out, but in space

Roots of Patcha is a fun, and some might argue, better alternative to Stardew Valley.
I have Stardew Valley but the calendar get’s me soooo anxious. I enjoy Graveyard Keeper way more, even with its differences.
How does the calendar (events) works on Roots of Patcha?
I absolutely love enter the gungeon
