5 Co-op Games Perfect for a Girls’ Night In

The air’s getting colder, the days are getting shorter, and honestly? I’m not leaving the house unless there’s hot chocolate involved.

If you and your bestie are also in your cozy era, here are 5 cozy co-op games that’ll keep you warm (and wildly entertained) all season long.

1. Stardew Valley by ConcernedApe

Stardew Valley is a classic farm simulator that lets you and your bestie build your dream life together—fishing, farming, mining, and flirting your way through the peaceful little town of Pelican Town. The best part? You can move entirely at your own pace.

There’s no pressure to speed through the story or hit any deadlines. Just pure, cozy escapism. Whether you’re tending crops, decorating your farmhouse, or exploring the mines together, it’s a perfect game for relaxed nights in.

Available on: Steam, Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, PC (Windows & iOS), Mobile

2. Split Fiction by Hazelight Studios

Released in mid-2025, Split Fiction has taken the gaming world by storm—and for good reason. It’s a story-driven adventure about two writers trapped inside their unfinished novel, where every page turns into a new world to explore.

The game blends heartfelt storytelling with inventive co-op puzzles that require real teamwork (and maybe a little telepathy). Expect emotional twists, stunning visuals, and gameplay that feels as cinematic as it is collaborative.

Available on: Steam, Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, PC (Windows)

3. Ibb and Obb by Sparpweed and Codeglue

Ibb and Obb is an adorable puzzle platformer where you and your partner control two blob-like creatures navigating mirrored worlds.

Communication is key here—every jump, portal, and bounce depends on timing and trust. The pastel visuals and dreamy soundtrack make it a super calming experience, even when you’re stuck on the trickier puzzles. It’s short, sweet, and perfect for cozy afternoons when you just want to vibe and solve something together.

Available on: Steam, PlayStation 3, Switch, PC (Windows & iOS)

4. Portal 2 by Valve

It’s old, but it’s gold. If you haven’t played the Portal series yet, you’re in for a treat. And if you’re like me and have already run through the Portal 2 story a few times, here’s your sign to revisit the co-op mode.

The community constantly uploads new puzzles to the workshop, many of which are even more creative (and chaotic) than the originals. You’ll laugh, argue, and probably fall into a few portals—but that’s all part of the fun.

Available on: Steam, Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, PC (Windows & iOS)

5. It Takes Two by Hazelight Studios

From the same creators of Split Fiction, It Takes Two is a masterpiece of co-op storytelling. You play as a couple turned into dolls who must work together to fix their fractured relationship.

Every level introduces new mechanics like platforming, puzzles, and even (not too intense!) combat. It’s emotional, funny, and full of those “oh my god this is so creative” moments. Definitely one of the best couch co-op games ever made.
