If you want to play with friends online, but your computer's specs won't allow you to run Call of Duty: Warzone or Doom Eternal, we've prepared 30 co-op games for you that will run on any bucket.

Figment 2: Creed Valley

  • Genre: Adventure
  • Platforms: PC
  • Multiplayer: Local co-op for 2 players

Bright visuals and an unusual journey through the human mind await us in Figment 2: Creed Valley. Players will have to fight the Nightmares that have flooded this place. Solve puzzles, fight bosses in musical battles, and travel through a world where everyone communicates in song. The second player will take on the role of Piper — the main character's bird companion.

System Requirements:

  • Processor: Intel Core i5 2500 / AMD FX 6120

  • Platforms: PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X
  • Multiplayer: Online co-op for 12 players

Roots of Pacha is a primitive version of Stardew Valley. Find wild seeds, grow crops, discover new technologies to help your tribe, and pray to Mother Nature Pacha to receive her blessings. Fishing system, crafting, relationships with tribe members, overall leveling up of the settlement, as well as interesting mini-mechanics are available. You can gather a group of up to 12 people.

System Requirements:

  • Processor: 2 GHz

Barotrauma

  • Genre: Management, Roguelike, Survival Horror
  • Platforms: PC
  • Multiplayer: Online co-op for 16 players

Barotrauma is undoubtedly a cooperative game. However, in practice, things often don't go according to plan, and the journey through the mysterious depths of an alien ocean turns into chaos: someone forgot to close the hatch and put on a spacesuit, someone got poisoned by some chemicals, and a deep-sea monster ate another crew member. In short, staying afloat, literally, in Barotrauma is quite difficult. But it's very, very fun!

Take on the role of a captain, mechanic, security officer, perform your role on the submarine, servicing the ship, fend off monsters, travel between underwater stations, and complete the mission. And remember — constant vigilance is required!

System Requirements:

  • Processor: Dual Core 2.4 GHz
  • RAM: 4 GB
  • Graphics Card: 2 GB

HELLCARD

  • Genre: Roguelike, Strategy
  • Platforms: PC
  • Multiplayer: Online co-op for 3 players

In the card roguelike HELLCARD, we create our own deck and fight monsters in dynamic turn-based card battles. All of this can be done in a company of up to 3 players, including random ones. Choose the main hero, companions, fight, level up cards, find powerful artifacts, and try to cope with the growing strength of the enemies.

System Requirements:

Sun Haven

  • Multiplayer: Online co-op for 8 players

Another project very similar to Stardew Valley, this time in a fantasy setting. Set up your farm, explore a fantasy world, fight various enemies, and gather resources…

In short, as we said — this is a fantasy version of Stardew Valley. The customization system and the possibility to form relationships with the locals are in place. So, grab your friends (up to 8 people) and enjoy the magical farming life in Sun Haven.

System Requirements:

  • Processor: 2 GHz
  • RAM: 4 GB
  • Graphics Card: 3 GB (the developers decided to play it safe)

Mr. Sun's Hatbox

  • Genre: Arcade, Platformer, Roguelike
  • Platforms: PC, Nintendo Switch
  • Multiplayer: Local co-op for 2 players

The package has been stolen! And as a respectable postal service, the main character Mr. Sun's Hatbox promises to compensate for the loss, return the property, and... Unfolds an entire underground complex beneath the client's house, from where he embarks on missions to capture, eliminate, and steal valuable items. Choose a character, equip them with a weapon and a hat with special properties, and head out on a heist. Oh, I mean, on returning private property.

You will need to build an entire underground complex, upgrade it, and recruit kidnapped enemies. In short, Mr. Sun's Hatbox is a satirical roguelite platformer with rather silly objectives, but very fun gameplay.

System Requirements:

  • Processor: 1 GHz
  • RAM: 1024 MB
  • Graphics Card: 256 MB

Patch Quest

  • Genre: Action, Roguelike
  • Platforms: PC

Patch Quest is another project with an unusual combination of genres: roguelike, metroidvania, and monster-taming games. The main character aims to uncover the mysteries of Patchlantis, and for that, he needs to explore the patchwork labyrinth, tame a multitude of monsters and upgrade them, unlock new mechanics, gather various resources, and... Repeat, because you definitely won't complete the game on the first try. After all, it's a roguelike.

System Requirements:

  • Processor: Core i5 7200
  • RAM: 2 GB
  • Graphics Card: NVIDIA GTX 750
