Like the title says. Looking for suggestions for multiplayer (LOCAL) family games.

I think Monopoly is available on Plus and am gonna download that to try it but am wanting suggestions for other games you guys have played with your family and kids in the living room setting.

Specifically looking for 3-4 player local multiplayer type games.

Thanks!

    This only covers games with a co-op mode, i.e. exclusively solo or competitive games are out of scope. It will let you filter by feature, player count, and platform. It’s well worth having a browse.

    I spend most of my family game time with 2 player co-op but some highlights that scale to more players are Rayman legends, Bonkies, and Sackboy’s adventure

    Ultimate chicken horse. You can play locally and with people online. Play it with my kids (11 and 8) all the time and they love it. Tetris connect and Spelunky 2 are fun as well.

    Edit: the Overcooked games are fun couch co-op games too.

    Rabbids is really fun. Most of the PlayLink games like knowledge is power, chimparty, frantics, that’s you, just deal with it, uno. All of the jackbox party games. We probably had the most fun with the murder mystery trivia one. Little big planet, gangbeasts, wobbly life, goat simulator.

    Super monkey ball banana mania apparently has about a dozen party games as it compiles content from the prev releases. Have played some of them on the GameCube - Monkey Target being a fave.

      Really great. Monkey Bowling and Targets. The main game is best played on gamecube imo.

    I’ve also heard good things about Tomb Raider Temple of Osiris
