I’m looking for some nice local co-op games for 2-4 players. Please tell me your favourite ones that work well with controllers on a docked Steam Deck!
Edit: Massive thanks for the suggestions! I’ve wishlisted/bought most of the ones suggested here that I don’t already own.
A good one that hasn’t been mentioned here is Ship of Fools. Played it for the first time with my partner today and 4hrs flew by.
Ember Knights is a rogue lite heavily inspired by the gameplay of hades. Supports up to 4 players.
Plate Up is somewhat simmiliar to overcooked, but is more about process optimisation and not about dealing with the oddities of a stage.
Most lego games also offer local coop and are good fun.
30xx is a roguelite with gameplay simmiliar to MegaMan X that can be played by 2 players.
Towerfall Ascension is also worth a look.
Hell Divers is also a great game, but it had sound issues(strange echoes of some enemy sounds) last time i tried.
Gonna second tower fall. Easy to pick up and extremely fun
Plate up is free to play on steam over this weekend for its first anniversary
Seconding Plate Up! It’s like overcooked, except the difficulty comes from finding the best ways to run a restaurant, instead of lol-so-random kitchen mechanics. And it’s still getting regular content updates too!
