Staying in with your partner on Valentine’s Day? These are the 9 best couch co-op and two-player games to play on a cozy night-in

Unravel Two and Untitled Goose Game.

We're only a few days away from Valentine's Day, and it's when we want to shower our loved one with flowers and chocolates, and take them out to a fancy restaurant. But sometimes, you need to book weeks in advance to get a table at yours or your partner's favorite restaurant. That's why staying in is a great idea as you can avoid the dinnertime rush. Want to make it romantic? Light some candles, order your favorite takeaway, and play some video games.

I love gaming and it's one of my favorite things to do whenever I have time to spare. My partner, on the other hand, isn't big into gaming, and a couple of years ago, I finally convinced her to try a few couch co-op games on the Nintendo Switch — and we love playing them together. Regardless of whether your partner is a gamer or not, there are plenty of two-player games to enjoy (you don't need to be a pro gamer for that).

My personal top picks are Untitled Goose Game, where two players must work in tandem to unleash chaos upon a small town, and Overcooked, where you must prepare dishes on time to avoid burning down the kitchen. There are plenty more couch co-op and two-player games on the Switch, so read on to find out (and some are currently discounted too!).
