#1 It Takes Two
4.8

The onboarding is praised for welcoming new or non-gamer partners without heavy-handed teaching.

Pros: co-op experience, fun factor

Cons: narrative quality, dialogue quality

#2 Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted

Pros: fun factor, battle mode quality

Cons: multiplayer design, replay value

guide-style evidence found the game explainable despite many systems.

Pros: multiplayer design, sound design

Cons: narrative quality, map and navigation design

#5 Split Fiction

Pros: co-op experience, content variety

Cons: writing quality, narrative quality

Pros: gameplay mechanics, progression system

Cons: open-world design, AI behavior
