They might be clones of the same character or two separate people.
Puzzle games are a blast to play but even more fun with a friend.
Here are some of the best two-player co-op titles.
This form of co-op play isn’t often seen, but it is featured in the following games.
Nobody seems to realize he doesn’t look or move like a human, even his own family.
In co-op, you each control different tentacles and must work together to do the tasks you’re set.
Naturally, this makes things even more chaotic.

You and a friend control a very unsettling-looking creature in Struggling.
It has two arms that are attached to a deformed head.
Many sports games have been released over the years, but these are the best for couch co-op fun.

Each of them can be controlled, and they each have distinct abilities.
So, they both can deal some damage.
However, Cho is in control of the movement, meaning Gall is forced to go where Cho goes.
In real life, though, each of the people on that team is controlling their own bodies.
In Surgeon Simulator, each player controls a single hand.
The game is about overcoming this to complete surgery on your patient and avoid killing them in the process.

Indie games are so much more fun with a pal.
