272 Co-op & Multiplayer games reviewed and scored, best first.
272 reviews
A Kickstarter-backed, pro-player-built sci-fi RTS that arrives in Early Access as the most credible StarCraft successor in years, welded to a commander RPG layer that mostly earns its place — if you're still willing to relearn macro from scratch.
7 / 10
A four-player co-op deckbuilder that solves the genre's most obvious gap — playing Slay the Spire-style card combat as an actual shared party instead of a shared seed — and then spends the years after its Paradox acquisition undermining that achievement with DLC pricing its own community calls predatory.
6.5 / 10
Hazelight Studios' prison-break co-op predecessor to It Takes Two and Split Fiction remains Very Positive across more than 102,000 Steam reviews for its inventive, purely two-player design — but this review can confirm a real, still-current complaint It Takes Two eventually resolved: A Way Out's mandatory EA App launcher continues to cause connection failures, crashes and Steam-invite friction in reviews dated as recently as August 2025, with no fix announcement found anywhere in the developer's own Steam communications.
6.5 / 10
EA's biggest Battlefield launch in franchise history — 20 million units sold, record concurrent players, genuinely praised gunplay and an unusually stable launch — undercut by a widely repeated "bait and switch" narrative in which an acclaimed beta gave way to aggressive post-launch monetisation, and shadowed by a real, independently verified wave of layoffs across the studios that built it just months after that record-breaking success.
6.5 / 10
An ambitious single-world MMO crafting sandbox from the studio behind SpacetimeDB, built around a genuinely deep, RuneScape-inspired grind that its own biggest fans openly embrace — undercut by a real tension between its "idle-friendly" marketing and punishing stamina systems, rampant player-on-player griefing the developers are criticised for under-policing, and a disclosed but under-communicated plan to wipe progress and convert to free-to-play after Early Access.
6.5 / 10
A ten-year-old pixel dungeon-crawler that never quite decided whether it wants you clicking through fights or leaving them to auto-battle, held together by a four-currency stamina economy that structures every session it doesn't quietly monetise.
6.5 / 10
A first-person co-op roguelite where up to four cats sneak past dogs to rescue kittens, spend break-in cash on crossbows and grenades between runs, and try to outlast an escalating house — priced at $2.99 and one day old, with a single user review and no achievement list yet to check its own claims against.
6.5 / 10
Relic's standalone wave-defence spin-off is the rare Mixed rating where both sides agree the game is fun. The fight on its review page is entirely about the price tag — a full-expansion ask for five maps, four factions and a perk tree.
6.5 / 10
A brutal, deeply detailed survival sandbox set in Robert E. Howard's Hyboria that's held a genuinely devoted following since 2018, now carrying real, current frustrations over monetisation additions and mandatory online requirements introduced since Funcom's acquisition by Tencent.
6.5 / 10
The game that arguably invented the modern survival genre from an ARMA 2 mod is still running, still brutal, and still dividing its own reviews between people who lived through its infamous five-year alpha and people just discovering how unforgiving it remains today.
6.5 / 10
A short, stylish drift-racing game about a bomb-strapped monkey mail truck, loved by fans who call its unforgiving handling a fair skill curve and criticized just as forcefully by players who call the same physics broken — with a verified, punishing completion curve and three and a half months of developer silence underneath the debate.
6.5 / 10
Arkane's stylish time-loop shooter won Game of the Year honours from multiple outlets in 2021, but sits Mostly Positive across more than 30,000 Steam reviews — a notably wider gap between critical acclaim and player reception than sibling title Dishonored 2, driven by a real, detailed "undershoots Dishonored and Prey" complaint from longtime Arkane fans, and by a persistent Denuvo DRM and mandatory-online requirement this review can confirm, unlike Dishonored 2's, has not been removed even five years after launch.
6.5 / 10
A generous, well-made free shooter whose most-upvoted review isn't about the shooting at all — it's about the kernel-level anti-cheat that reviewers say keeps running after the game is uninstalled.
6.5 / 10
The best-feeling shooter ever made, attached to the most punishing content model in mainstream gaming. Its harshest reviews come from players with two thousand, five thousand, ten thousand hours logged — and the phrase they keep reaching for is "the best game I can't recommend".
6.5 / 10
A free, chaotic co-op dig-and-defend game where up to four friends mine for loot by day and fend off zombies by night — reviewed on its complete English review sample, which reads as a genuinely fun prototype whose launch-week bugs a solo developer has been patching almost daily.
6.5 / 10
A gorgeous arena fighter sitting at 85% lifetime — and 30% across its last hundred reviews, because a DLC released six days ago has Ultimate Edition owners saying they're being charged twice.
6.5 / 10
A staggeringly deep grand strategy sandbox spanning nearly four centuries of world history, and the game most responsible for Paradox's reputation as the industry's most aggressive DLC seller — with thousands of hours logged by reviewers giving it a thumbs-down on principle alone.
6.5 / 10
A hero-collecting idle RPG with real longevity behind it — five years in Early Access, fifteen-plus progression systems and no priced Steam DLC — undercut by a currency count that outgrows the player's patience and a guild structure that quietly punishes anyone without an active group.
6.5 / 10
A brutally tense, atmospheric co-op horror shooter built entirely around four-player coordination — undercut for years by the one thing it never properly solved: no server browser or real matchmaking, leaving solo players locked out unless they already have a premade squad.
6.5 / 10
A genuinely distinctive, hardcore 100-player WWII shooter built around resource-based meta-strategy and a dynamically shifting front line, still Very Positive across nearly 150,000 Steam reviews five years on — undercut by a real, sustained, multi-year complaint that Team17's 2023 acquisition of the game brought a persistent decline in update quality, and a genuine, currently active cheating problem several reviewers describe as severe enough to have driven entire dedicated communities away.
6.5 / 10
A co-op horror-comedy about hauling wrong-looking wildlife through a national park that shouldn't exist, held back from the genre's top table by a punishment mechanic that erases a night's work for reasons the player often can't see coming.
6.5 / 10
A tense, atmospheric PvPvE bounty-hunting shooter that rebuilt itself on a new engine and a fixed 1896 setting — and split a deeply devoted, thousand-hour community right down the middle over whether the relaunch was a genuine improvement or a betrayal of what made the original special.
6.5 / 10
An idle RPG that swaps the genre's usual real-time clock for something stranger — your knight levels up from the mouse clicks and keystrokes you make in other programs entirely.
6.5 / 10
A tense, punishing tactical shooter with genuinely excellent gunplay, now navigating the real aftermath of its developer's confirmed 2023 layoffs and subsequent ownership changes — a corporate instability story its own players have watched unfold in real time.
