Borderlands: The Handsome Collection
This product was recommended by Callum Marshall from GamerGuyde
Co-op games after a long time out of the spotlight are back in vogue largely thanks to games like It Takes Two offering quality co-op experiences and breathing new life into the genre. However, I’m here to say that there was always life in the couch co-op scene and if you are looking for a four player game where you can gather in your games room and experience a wacky and chaotic adventure, then I say look no further than Borderlands 2. We could have easily suggested the more recent Borderlands 3 here, but we feel that its predecessor shines far brighter and offers the most cohesive adventure in the series. In this game, you play as one of four vault hunters, aiming to stop the nefarious Handsome Jack and find some awesome guns in the process. The gameplay is fast and frantic, it offers a richer storyline than the breakout Borderlands title and best of all, there is so much content and DLC to enjoy. This game represents the Loot-shooter genre and does it with aplomb. So if you want to run and gun with up to three other pals, this is just the ticket!
Hasbro Gaming: Jenga Classic Game
This product was recommended by Will Tigerton from LeanBack Player
Almost everyone knows this game as it is a classic four-player game. Your goal is to pull out a block from the stack without letting the tower of blocks crash then place the block again on the topmost part. It is easy at the start of the game but as the game continues, it becomes harder and harder. Each pack contains 54 blocks of wood and a stacking sleeve. This game is sure to make your game night a lot enjoyable.
Horizon Chase Turbo Deluxe Edition
This product was recommended by John Tian from Mobitrix
This is the best four-player game – a tribute to classic arcade racers and inspired by the greatest hits of the 80s and 90s, such as Top Gear, OutRun, and the Rush Racing series. Players will relive the classic arcade gameplay of the highly acclaimed award-winning Horizon Chase World Tour.

Rainbow Six Siege
This product was recommended by Maria Godwin from BestReviews
With a team of players working together to complete objectives, Siege is an intense and thrilling experience. Whether playing on the attacking or defending side, there’s always something new to learn and master in this game. I’m not a gamer myself but my boys have persuaded me to play this game. After I’ve played for an hour, I fully understand why they kept on playing each night before going to bed. It has great graphics, tight maps, and destructible environments that anyone will surely love.
Left 4 Dead
This product was recommended by Sam Cohen from MyFreeOCR
It’d be a classic zombie shooter. Good for killing time with friends. Has a good interactive story as well. Left 4 Dead is one of the best 4 player games I’ve played. It’s highly addictive and fun to play. The developers did an amazing job creating a realistic post-apocalyptic world where zombies roam free and it’s the players’ job to kill them all.
Valheim
This product was recommended by Olivia Tan from CocoFax
Valheim doesn’t reinvent survival games, but it gets rid of all the stuff I don’t like about them. This relaxing, but punishing PvE camping trip to Viking purgatory will never let you starve to death, and you’ll never need to pay a dime to repair your items. All the busywork is gone, replaced by a gorgeous, threatening world, and an elegant crafting system that lets you make everything from ugly lean-tos to the flippin’ Eye of Sauron. Teaming up with friends to plan adventures and build a home together makes the experience even better.
No Man’s Sky
This product was recommended by Olivia Tan from CocoFax
No Man’s Sky has been a fun redemption story to watch unfold. Developer Hello Games has spent the last four years updating its galactic exploration-survival sim with expansive new features like base building, guilds, and most importantly, online multiplayer. In 2020, No Man’s Sky is some of the most fun you can have in a co-op survival sim. The game still occasionally buckles under the weight of annoying bugs, but it’s worth powering through for the joy of discovering planets and bizarre creatures with friends.

Czech Games Codenames
This product was recommended by David Murphy from DropGuys
I love a good, quick and addictive board game. One you can get really into, but does not take up your whole day. Codenames is the perfect board game for 4 or more people and can become very competitive really quickly. You have to work with a teammate to contact all of your agents before the opposing team. You use codewords to try and get your teammate to guess the words you have assigned to you, all while trying to avoid the assassin. This fast paced game is hard to pull away from and will pass time easily. The best part is there are many word cards, so each time you play it will always be different. You can never get bored with this game, and it is perfect for any big or small get together.

Overcooked! All You Can Eat
This product was recommended by Mark Richardson from The Big Phone Store
Containing both the first and second titles and all DLC, this game has a lot packed into it. We start off cooking the basics, and as the levels go on things get more complicated, not just in terms of the food that needs to be made but also the level layouts and obstacles. Communication is key and knowing who needs to perform what tasks, balance out the workload and prepare for chaos. You will make silly mistakes and those can be frustrating or downright hilarious, you will either shout or be shouted at as you accidentally throw the finished meal off a cliff or let something overcook. If you like a challenge, enjoy couch co-op and don’t mind the possibility of losing friends then this is the game for you.
