Bake ‘n Switch
There’s lots of love and effort put into this game. The breads are super adorable!While you can play the game with 2 players, it definitely gets more fun if you’ve got a full party.There are a couple of levels that could be balanced a little better. In some you can get away with camp stacking the spawners which can get quite mundane. But you’ll realize there’s a wide range of difficulty once you play the stormy levels or try to complete each level with 3 coins.The highlights for me are the boss levels. My hands got real sweaty taking them on.

This game is deceptively difficult. How can so cute be so challenging?
The gameplay feels like a high bread (ha ha!) between Moving Out and Overcooked. Finishing levels is doable first try, getting 3 stars is a lot harder on many of the levels. Storm levels - geez, those are tough!
One thing I would love to see is adjusted star level scores for additional players (3-player should have a higher score needed for 3-star than 2-player).
Overall, an adorable game with challenging gameplay that feels like it will take quite a while to actually complete. Here’s hoping there are 4-star levels when we get there.

A great addition to the Co-op time management/Resource Manage genre,
Soundtrack is pleasing to the ear.
The game is simple to pick up and required scores are manageable.
Currently Lacking in accessibility for the colour blind player, but I have no doubt this will be fixed.
Being able to Mix Local and Online multiplayer makes gathering friends very easy.
Graphical style is very clear and easy to view during long play sessions

Flock of Dogs
Flock of Dogs is a top-down, twin-stick, crew game. Most of the time, one player pilots the whale and everyone else rides flying dogs to battle and quest. Players can land on the whale and relaunch when ready. The journey leads to the Flying Festival through procedurally-generated, floating biomes with a mix of creatures, characters, and quests.
Together with your brother and sister Dogriders, mount up on flying dogs. Name them. Teach them tricks. Then put on a fancy hat, grab your umbrella, and soar through the air. Make sure to tend to your flock as dogs can get hungry, thirsty, sick, and injured.
A friendly skywhale acts kinda like your living airship. It will provide plenty of inventory space in its big belly and nests for your flying dogs. You can also strap different gear onto the whale, such as the water hose, vacuum turret, or just extra shelves.

There is support for up to 8 LOCAL and/or ONLINE players. Singleplayer. 2 players on 1 keyboard. Dozens of supported controllers. And it features native network code built on the Photon Unity Networking plug-in. Of course, it also supports Steam Remote Play Together.
Every copy of Flock of Dogs comes with one Friend Slot. It’s not exactly 2-for-1, but in some ways, it’s better. A Friend Slot allows you to invite one friend who doesn’t own the game to join you online. This utilizes the native network code. You can invite any friend, and each time, it can be a different friend. Additional Friend Slots will be available for purchase.
Flock of Dogs is inspired by storybooks, cartoons, and suburban parks. It features hand-drawn characters and painted environments. It is filled with color and quirkiness and danger. Brave adventures can seek out dark caves filled with monsters, while those wanting a leisurely float to the Flying Festival are also accomodated. Wherever, however, and with whomever you play Fock of Dogs, It’s a magical flight.

ibb & obb
ibb & obb can offer:
1) 15 usual levels plus 8 hidden, secret levels; those regular levels will gradually increase in length, difficulty, number of enemies and score;
2) co-op mode as well as solo play-through; solo mode significantly toughens the game, because you will have to control two characters by yourself, meaning while Ibb (say, your left hand) jumps and runs away from a bunch of blackened hedgehogs, Obb (now your right hand) is rushing away and breaks down the same hedgehogs from another side of the surface. Either is upside down, that again, adds more challenge.

I have never wrote a review before but this game is so cute I had to. I bought this in a sale but I would say it’s worth the full price as you will have so much fun with it!
This is a lovely and fun game to play with a friend or a loved one as it is a fantastic puzzle solver. You will enjoy playing it even more if you use a microphone in multiplayer so you can communicate and help each other to complete the levels.
It took me and my friend 20 hours to complete it and to do all of the achievements. The ‘Quality Time’ achievement was a lot of fun to do and took a couple of hours to achieve. Both of us enjoyed playing this and had a lot of fun dying throughout due to the varied difficulty. The levels start off simple and as you progress the later ones become frustrating and a little troublesome, but if you keep trying you will eventually finish the game. We both became stuck on some puzzles for awhile but we found the solution by trying many different ways.

Bought this game tonight and immediately played though it. My friend and I are huge fans of the “We were here” games and have struggled to find similar ones after playing though the first two. We tried “Tic Tok” and a few coop platformer but nothing could really match up to “We were here”. Until now at least.
“Mark & Lara” is an amazing coop game. You don’t need the internet, just the game and you are set for about 2,5 hours of fun. That’s about how much time it took us to play though it once and we will again soon in order to experience the story out of both character’s perspectives. So for 4 bucks you have ~5 hours of playtime, which is solid imo. The story itself is amazing and really pulled us in. It really feels like investigating and we really enjoyed it. The game consists of talking to one of the two suspects, “official” documents and documentations of conversations. You have to really concentrate and look for the details and compare what the two suspects say in order to find the solution. Teamwork is necessary. The story was surprising in quite a few points and it was refreshing to not have a standart “why I killed him” plot but something more complex. We developed a good amount of theories of what could have happened and none of them turned out to be the correct one in the end.

Overcooked! 2
Amazing game to play with friends/gf/bf
Everyone who likes fun should try, not expensive, not hard
A lot of maps

Multiplayer too lag, not because of our internet connection. This situation persists since 2018 and I believe the fault is on the developer who didn’t listen to MANY players’ reviews about the same problem as me. Overcooked! 2 is a great game, but this multiplayer lag problem has made the game very annoying and difficult to play with friends. Me and my girlfriend started to get angry about that. Today, 2021, the problem is still there, no fix, nothing. I can’t say anything more. Disappointed!

Overcooked! All You Can Eat
Even that the game has some bugs that Team17 doesnt fix and the game doesnt have much new levels…
PROS:
Be able to play OC 1, OC 2 / DLCs, 7 New levels in One Game
Crossplay works better than OC2
Really fun to play with your friends
CONS:
Too expensive…
Some bugs (example: some stuff get stuck outside the level or above the walls/oven (plates, pizza….)
Response is a bit laggy comparing with OC2

If you’ve played Overcooked 1 or 2, this is simply a collection of both with some new levels, which is not worth a full price. If you’ve never played Overcooked series, this is the perfect one for you.

Shift Happens
People will inevitably compare this game to Shiftlings - maybe even call one of them a knockoff. Despite both games having some identical game mechanics, they are very different games. It’s similar to Halo versus Doom. Both are FPS games where a green marine blasts through unnatural creatures, but the gameplay is not the same. Having played around 5 hours both shifty games, I’m making a short comparison.
Shiftlings:
- Shiftlings singleplayer/co-op is both the same game, in singleplayer you just switch between characters

| Factor | Rating | Description |
| Gameplay Loop | 7 | This game is basically no-nonesense fun platforming. It knows what it wants to be and sticks to that. Getting past levels is pretty easy, but every level has these orbs, a secret area, and one bonus thingy to collect - which makes for a fun enough experience. There’s 4 worlds, and we found the 2nd one to be the most fun in terms of the quality of each and every level. Some of the later levels can start repeating the same ideas every now and then, but the game easily managed to stay fun for us through the 10h runtime. I do think I’d have rated it even higher with an even more crisp runtime. Just remember one thing, do not skip on the bonus levels. They’re the best content and the most memorable bits of the game for us. |

Not a bad game but with a big discount. And it’s pretty short.
The game has problems.
If the creators fixed it, it would be quite an interesting game.

This game has issues.
Although in theory it has controller support, in my case it only works with one controller, meaning the second player must play with keyboard and mouse. Not ideal in the intended scenario of couch gaming with my wife.
Sometimes when controller is selected as input method, it still requires actions to be performed with mouse.
There are issues with button remapping; the function seems to be there, but doesn’t work.
The tutorial is infuriatingly slow, with long delays between dialogue lines, actions and transitions. It also doesn’t tell you how to play with controller; even with controller selected, the tips and objectives are all given for keyboard controls.
