Castle Crashers
A 2D side-scrolling beat ‘em up hack ‘n slash pushing sixteen years old is Castle Crashers, but it’s gameplay, vibrancy, and whimsical humour is timeless. What other game can you slap an enemy in the face with a fish? Embarking on a quest to rescue four princesses from a mystical overlord wizard as one of four colourful knights, the adventure is best enjoyed in squads of four – you and three mates. The chaotic combat belies an impressive combo system, with a smorgasbord of fantastic weaponry beyond the aforementioned fish to wield. Castle Crashers deserves its reputation as one of the most satisfying couch co-op games ever.
