Games like Split Fiction

~12h campaign · 90 min sessions

A divorcing couple gets stuck as dolls and has to cooperate through a house-sized adventure. Still the gold standard for 'games like Split Fiction.'

Every level gives you different abilities, so the stronger player cannot just solo it. Cross-play means PC and Switch can sit on the same couch in spirit.

Two inmates break out and try to stay free. Split-screen even when you play online, so you are always watching the same messy plan.

Story choices matter more than aim. The weaker shooter still gets spotlight scenes, chases, and dialogue.

Two yarn creatures swing, stitch, and tug each other through sunlit puzzles. Quiet, pretty, and over in an evening if you push it.

You share a rope. The better player can set up swings while the other just holds on, then swap. No one gets left in a fail loop.

One of you is a field agent. The other is a hacker staring at a different screen. You only win if you talk.

Asymmetric on purpose. The 'worse gamer' can take the hacker seat and still be the reason you clear the mission.

Two people trapped in a castle, each seeing rooms the other cannot. Your voice chat is the only inventory that matters.

If one of you is better at 3D movement, give them exploration. The other can own the riddles. Nobody needs a high K/D.

Wizard, thief, knight. Physics puzzles and light combat in a fairy-tale diorama. Co-op lets you each pick a job.

The knight is easy mode. The wizard is the puzzle brain. Swap if someone gets stuck. Very pause-friendly.
