Fifty new games styled after a forgotten 1980s console, from platformers to pinball golf, half of them playable by two.
Who can play
- Shared-screen play for 2 players on PC and Switch.
- No online play on any platform.
- One copy is enough with Remote Play Together on PC.
How it plays
Half of the collection has a two-player mode on one screen: versus games such as Pingolf, Bug Hunter and Party House, and co-op games such as Ninpek, Mooncat and Fist Hell.
You can hop between quick duels and longer co-op runs in one evening, though many games keep the old-school difficulty.
There is no online play; on Steam, Remote Play Together lets a friend join from another home.
