What are your favorite split-screen co-op PC games? (sh.itjust.works)

My wife and I like to play games together, but PC devs often skip couch co-op options. For example, I bought Halo Master Chief Collection because I know Halo co-op is legendary and I never really played Halo growing up, nor did she. But the PC version specifically doesn't have split screen co-op where the console version does.

We already own and play Stardew Valley, Outward (fantastic game if you aren't aware), and Civ 5 (we prefer it over 6).

So what other options have you enjoyed that I may have missed?

KeyWe is the newest one I've played with my wife. It's a game where you both play kiwis operating a relay station that has some quirks of its own.

Other games I would suggest:

  • Overcooked
  • Catastronauts
  • Moving Out
  • Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime
  • Helldivers
  • Gauntlet
  • Magicka
  • Age of Wonders III (in hotseat mode)

If you like beat 'em ups:

  • Streets of Rage 4
  • Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge
  • Scott Pilgrim vs The World
  • Mother Russia Bleeds

I'm not sure if it has split-screen or split-screen mods but check out Dinkum too.
