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.
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!
From video gaming to card games and stuff in between, if it’s gaming you can probably discuss it here!

If you don’t mind something more casual and relaxing, Spiritfarer is good too. Wife and I played it in about a week. Very touching story at parts too.
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.

Wow!!! I had completely forgotten about this site. What a fantastic resource. Does anyone remember, was this page started by the Penny Arcade guys or did they just plug it in the beginning?
I wouldn’t recommend A Hat in Time, the local co-op is really bad because of how the camera works. :(
A few steam games I know:
ibb & obb
Dinasty Warriors 8
We played on PS but also available for pc:
It Takes Two
Stardew Valley
Children of Morta
Divinity: Original Sin 2
Cuphead
Guacamelee
Moon Hunters
Out of Space
Make sure to check the Nucleus Coop App if you haven’t already!
https://nucleus-coop.github.io/
It turns games that don’t have a native local coop mode into local coop by simulating a LAN and running two instances of the game communicating exclusively with each other. It works really well, especially if you have a multi-monitor setup.
I have played multiple games in local coop with my brother with this, including Elden Ring. It’s been a blast.
Oooh, this looks cool!
Could we play Elden Ring coop if only him has a copy?
Yes, you only need one copy of the game for most of the games supported by Nucleus Coop. It creates its own simulated Steam users/accounts for the game in the background.
Oh shit, that’s cool as hell! Thank you for sharing this! How fun!!
Nucleus coop is one of the best things to happen to the PC space in recent years, I’m happy to spread the word!
I just wish more games were supported.
Holy shit does that thing have functionality. Elden Ring split screen with only one copy? Deep Rock Galactic split screen? Dark Souls 1 and 3? Sign me the fuck up!
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)
Spirit farer is a lovely game to play together.
I was a bit confused when you said local co-op. It implies 2 computers on the same local network(connected to the same router, no internet connection required). I think the term you’re looking for is split screen gaming.
When I looked at pictures of Spelunky games like Clonk and Liero popped into mind, I think there are options for split screen multiplayer in those games, they’re old school PvP games.
Local co-op is same machine, shared screen. Aka couch co-op
You’re talking about LAN.
At least thats how it would be referred to around here
lan, local area network. I guess people see it differently.
Yeah thats what you described, no?
My friends call that LAN play or LAN co-op. To me, local co-op has always been a more general phrase, covering all of the above.
I absolutely love enter the gungeon
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.
I’d like to add some Arcade suggestions:
Golden Axe X-Men (6 player) The Simpsons The Punisher Snake Rattle ‘n’ Roll (NES) Revolution X
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
Broforce
Overcooked 2 has better controls than 1
Rayman Origins
Rayman Legends
Towerfall Ascension
Out of Space is like Moving Out, but in space
Chariot
Heavenly Bodies
It Takes Two is brilliant!
Haven
The entire Tales Of series EXCEPT Arise
I’ve heard nothing but good about Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime. Haven’t played it myself.
