What matters: Co-op roguelikes

Co-op roguelikes work because the randomness gives your group a shared story. A run falls apart, someone makes a terrible call, and you are still talking about it later. The genre covers a lot of ground, though, so it helps to decide what kind of evening you want before you pick.

Tone is the first thing to check. Lethal Company and Content Warning mix horror with comedy, and they work best when everyone is willing to panic and laugh. R.E.P.O. leans the same way with stealth and survival. If you would rather shout at each other about logistics, Unrailed! and PlateUp! are colorful, chaotic and easy to pick up, and PlateUp! adds a strategy layer between rounds.

Next, think about difficulty and how much action you want. Risk of Rain 2 is tagged as difficult and is a shooter, so it suits groups who like to learn systems and push harder runs. Elden Ring Nightreign is a dark fantasy soulslike action RPG, a better fit if your group enjoys tough combat. Also check platforms: Lethal Company is PC only, while Unrailed!, PlateUp!, Content Warning and Risk of Rain 2 are listed on PC, PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo Switch, which makes mixed groups easier.
