Two's company.. and more's a party!
Because there's nothing better than capping off a night with friends, a family Sunday, or even date night with a good video game designed for multiplayer fun, we've put together a selection of six little gems for you to try.
Lumberhill
For a night with friends.
Lumberjacks on a mission in a cutesy world for co-op fun. Each level lasts just four minutes, but has plenty of tasks for you to complete. Cutting wood, bringing sheep back to their pens, building bridges, avoiding traps... and even dinosaurs! Fans of Overcooked will love this one!

Pile Up! Box by Box
For rainy Sundays with the family.
You play as a cardboard box that can jump, stack objects on its head (generally other boxes), and even run and dash. Non-violent and easy to pick up and play, this is a party game for the whole family, as even the littlest gamers can handle it. A very, very cute game, in terms of both its graphics and soundtrack.

Hilarious!
