What are your favourite local co-op games? - eviltoast

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.

    My daughter and I have played through quite a few games. Here are our favorites:

    • ANY LEGO game, we have played through many of these
    • The TRINE series. They are fun puzzle platforms
    • portal 2 co-op. There is a campaign and other maps on the workshop
    • brothers: a tale of two sons. Sit right next to each other and share the controller
    • Unraveled 2, puzzle platform errors
    • It takes two is an amazing game from EA.
    • sackboy: a big adventure
    • battle block theater is a fun romp
    • bleep bloop
    • degrees of separation, mostly fun there was a few annoying puzzles, but many can be skipped
    • guacamole is a nice battle platformer
    • ibb and obb is a very unique puzzle platformer
    • octodad is pretty great fun
    • pixel junk monsters is a tower defense style co op game
    • putty pals is a fun if childish looking game
    • spelunky is a rogue like
    • toodee and topdee is a fun puzzler

    Those are our favorites!

      Seconding It Takes Two, a fantastic game. Played with GF who’s not gamer at all, enjoyed the hell out of it.
