00:00 Welcome to Mojo Plays, and today we're looking at the 10 best co-op games to enjoy with friends
00:13 and family on Nintendo Switch.
00:15 Now it's worth noting that this list will exclusively focus on cooperative experiences,
00:20 so games like Smash Bros, Mario Kart, and Mario Party, while awesome games, won't be
00:24 featured here since those are primarily competitive multiplayer games.
00:36 Before we begin, we publish new content all week long, so be sure to subscribe and ring
00:40 the bell to be notified about our latest videos.
00:45 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Shredders Revenge
00:55 Classic beat 'em up games are some of the most fun you can have in co-op.
00:58 TMNT Shredders Revenge is truly a blast from start to finish, and not just because of the
01:04 game's tubular source material.
01:06 If you are someone who clamors for arcade beat 'em up experiences from the 90s with
01:10 classics like, you know, the Simpsons Arcade or, of course, the TMNT Arcade games, then
01:15 Shredders Revenge will be right up your alley.
01:17 Lovingly crafted and perfectly balanced, Shredders Revenge puts you and your pals into the turtle
01:22 shoes of our titular heroes alongside the likes of April O'Neil, Master Splinter, and
01:27 even Casey Jones.
01:28 Barreling through the diverse stages, pummeling baddies, picking up weapons, and snacking
01:33 on some pizza never really gets old, mostly because each character has their own abilities
01:37 and attributes.
01:38 This is just a good old-fashioned beat 'em up romp with a fun cartoony story to boot.
01:52 Disney Illusion Island It's a real shame that more people don't
02:03 discuss Disney Illusion Island when chatting about the best co-op games on Nintendo's
02:07 beloved hybrid system.
02:09 Fortunately, we're here to remedy that.
02:11 This is one heck of a charming and whimsical 2D highly stylized platforming adventure game
02:15 with plenty of Metroidvania elements.
02:18 While perfectly playable solo, this is actually a game built for co-op.
02:21 I mean, come on, you can hug your partner to regain hearts in this game, on top of offering
02:26 them a helping hand in tougher platforming sections.
02:29 How freaking heartwarming is that?
02:37 Disney Illusion Island tasks you to play as Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, and
02:43 Goofy as they explore and traverse the eponymous island in hopes of helping the Hokans recover
02:48 their stolen tomes.
02:50 Eschewing the traditional combat found in similar games, Illusion Island focuses on
02:54 platforming goodness since you can't actually battle baddies.
02:58 It's a highly wholesome family-friendly affair that is equal parts playful, accessible, and
03:02 fun.
03:14 Stardew Valley
03:15 I think it's common knowledge at this point that Stardew Valley can be played in its entirety
03:27 in co-op, right?
03:28 Well, if for some reason you missed that nugget of truth, then you really have been missing
03:32 out.
03:33 This behemoth of a farming life sim game truly needs no introduction, since everyone and
03:37 their grandma has either heard of or played this utterly enjoyable game.
03:41 The idea of teaming up with a friend or family member to build the farm of your dreams, harvest
03:45 a bunch of crops, befriend the pelican town locals, fish the streams and oceans, and mine
03:50 the, well, I guess mine the mines, is nothing short of extraordinary.
03:55 Stardew is the epitome of cozy gaming, both in terms of the game's art style and overall
03:59 aesthetics, but also in just how it lets you play it how you want to.
04:03 Having someone alongside you to share in this wholesome journey is a treat worth experiencing.
04:16 Unravel 2
04:23 For all of EA's baffling decisions, somehow they still sometimes manage to greenlight
04:28 and produce some highly creative indie/AA games.
04:32 This fact is incredibly apparent with the Unravel games, specifically Unravel 2 in this
04:36 co-op list's case.
04:38 Now for the uninitiated, Unravel 2 sees you play as Yarny, a lovable and adorable yarn-created
04:43 protagonist who must venture across Verden bucolic vistas and landscapes in search of
04:48 bringing light and hope to others.
04:51 Of course, sharing this journey with a friend or family member who also plays as a second
04:55 Yarny is simply sublime, mostly because the game is really all about making connections,
05:00 building bridges, and offering hope to others.
05:03 Now don't get me wrong, Unravel 2 still has some challenging puzzles and tough platforming
05:07 gauntlets, however our two Yarnys are able to help one another through these perilous
05:12 sections.
05:13 It seems as if many people skipped out on this game, so be sure to remedy that right
05:16 away if you want a cozy and emotion-filled co-op adventure on Switch.
05:30 Untitled Goose Game
05:40 As soon as we think of Untitled Goose Game we can't help but smile and chuckle to ourselves.
05:45 I mean the idea of causing some unintentional, okay yes it's very much intentional chaos
05:51 as a mischievous goose is nothing short of brilliant.
05:54 Wandering around a quaint countryside village setting as a derpy goose, disrupting the locals
05:59 days and duties, ticking items off a notepad checklist, all while honking away at anyone
06:04 who deems you a nuisance is just so much freaking fun.
06:07 Now imagine doing that in co-op with a second dastardly goose.
06:20 Well you need not imagine it my friend, since you can actually team up with an infamous
06:24 geese duo, since after all, the more the merrier right?
06:28 Seriously though, Untitled Goose Game might just be the most fun you can have causing
06:31 harmless mischief in a video game, although the villagers might not agree.
06:35 Now who's ready for some duck duck goose?
06:49 Snipperclips Cut It Out Together
06:50 Okay, this might just be me, but whenever I say Snipperclips Cut It Out Together Out
07:02 Loud, I feel as if I need to sing it for others to hear.
07:05 I mean Snipperclips Cut It Out Together.
07:08 Yep, that happened, you have my sincerest apologies.
07:11 Okay, that strange personal premise aside, Snipperclips is an utterly enjoyable co-op
07:16 game that sees you and a pal snip and clip each other to solve puzzles, play a bunch
07:20 of minigames, and create ingenious designs.
07:23 Don't worry, snipping and clipping isn't what you think in this game, or maybe it is.
07:27 After all, you and your co-op partner are cartoony pieces of crafting paper whose sole
07:31 purpose in their papery life is to be snipped and clipped in order to solve the aforementioned
07:36 crafty puzzles and move through the game's various levels.
07:39 Each self-contained level gives you the freedom to solve its conundrums as you see fit, which
07:43 means there isn't really a one-size-fits-all approach to the gameplay.
07:47 Just let your creativity run wild in this one.
07:50 What makes Snipperclips so darn fun is that it constantly changes up the gameplay, puzzles,
07:54 scenarios, and minigames to keep it fresh all throughout.
08:05 Luigi's Mansion 3
08:17 Luigi's Mansion 3 is easily one of the best Nintendo Switch games full stop.
08:22 Exploring the Last Resort Hotel, a very much haunted hotel if you didn't guess from the
08:26 name, as Luigi, alongside Polterpup, as he searches for his captured pals, is a joy.
08:32 Mostly down to the varied hotel floors, creative uses of the ghost vacuum known as the Poltergust,
08:38 battling spooky denizens, and finding oodles of secrets is really just a treat in single
08:42 player.
08:43 But you ask, this is a co-op list, right?
08:46 Well yeah, fear not my ghost hunting buddy, co-op in this game comes in the form of Gooigi,
08:50 a gooey green version of Luigi who is unlocked after the opening parts of the game.
09:01 While there's a caveat that the first section of Luigi's Mansion 3 is just single player,
09:06 once you do obtain Gooigi, you can co-op to your heart's content, with one player as
09:10 Luigi and the other, of course, you guessed it, as Gooigi.
09:14 As you might imagine from the "goo" part of his name, Gooigi is able to access all
09:17 manner of tight places in the last resort in order to help Luigi out.
09:22 Two players moving through this creepy yet family friendly adventure is sheer enjoyment,
09:26 so be sure to make a reservation for two for this one on Nintendo Switch.
09:40 Kirby and the Forgotten Land
09:50 What's better than one adorable pink portly blob who sucks up anything and everything
09:54 in the vicinity?
09:55 Well, two adorable pink portly blobs who both suck up everything in the vicinity for double
09:59 the shenanigans.
10:01 Despite the obvious moral quandaries that Kirby literally inhales creatures to swallow
10:05 them and absorb their power, there's really no denying the impeccable gameplay in Kirby
10:10 and the Forgotten Land.
10:11 While Kirby games do sort of seem a dime a dozen on the Switch, the Forgotten Land came
10:16 out swinging and never lets up.
10:18 It's just a fun, refined, and entertaining 3D platforming romp that is only made better
10:22 in co-op.
10:23 The Waddle Dees have been captured and it's now up to you and a buddy to save the day
10:27 in the new world.
10:28 It's really the new mouthful mode that takes the cake here in this game, well, that and
10:33 some really enjoyable explorable stages and worlds.
10:36 Kirby can suck up and transform into cars, vending machines, rollers, traffic cones,
10:41 and more all throughout this adventure.
10:43 It's wacky, zany, playful, and an utter blast in co-op.
10:56 Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury Yes, yes, we know, technically Super Mario
11:10 3D World is a Wii U game, but since only like 12 people had a Wii U, let's just say it's
11:14 a Switch game.
11:15 This game isn't just a mere port, however.
11:17 Instead of resting on its comfy, pricey laurels, Nintendo opted to not only spice up and enhance
11:22 the amazing 3D World experience, they also glued on a completely new Mario experience
11:27 in the form of Bowser's Fury, a new addition that holds up as one of the best 3D Mario
11:32 games to date.
11:33 However, it's really in the way co-op works in 3D World that makes it on this list.
11:37 Hopping, skipping, and pouncing your way through each world in 3D World is just so much fun.
11:43 Transforming into a cat, ringing some bells, clamoring up walls, and collecting coins and
11:47 stars galore never gets old in this game.
11:50 And once you've had your fill of 3D World, jump over to Bowser's Fury for some cat-shine
11:54 goodness as you control Mario with a buddy controlling Bowser Jr.
11:59 The new open-ish free-roam world is brimming with things to do, enemies to pummel, items
12:03 to collect, platforming gauntlets to tackle, and of course a giant Bowser to battle.
12:08 It's really good times had by all.
12:09 [Gameplay]
12:22 It Takes Two
12:23 It's an unequivocal fact that It Takes Two from development team Hazelight Studios is
12:33 the must-play co-op game around.
12:35 Yes, it's really that darn good.
12:37 It Takes Two is, in fact, only playable in co-op.
12:40 And it's all the better for it.
12:42 Step into the shoes of bickering, on-the-verge-of-divorce married couple May and Cody.
12:46 After being transformed into dolls by their daughter's tears, since she of course doesn't
12:50 want them to get divorced, May and Cody meet up with the quirky, spicy, and entertaining
12:55 Dr. Hakim, who is now personified as a therapy book known as the Book of Love.
13:00 [Gameplay]
13:12 What lies ahead for May and Cody is an incredible adventure that seeks to bring them together
13:15 as a couple and hopefully restore their broken relationship.
13:19 It Takes Two is simply sublime, with each new section offering new ways to play, new
13:23 ways to co-op together, and new puzzles to solve, all while moving along its heartwarming
13:28 and emotion-filled story.
13:29 Seriously, the game never lets up from start to finish, as each new beat is filled with
13:34 fresh gameplay ideas, abilities, puzzles, platforming sections, and so, so much more.
13:39 It Takes Two will go down in history as one of the very best co-op games of all time.
13:44 Don't skip this one.
13:45 [Gameplay]
