two heads are indeed better than one
especially when these challenging co-op
games come into play welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’ll be
counting down our picks for the top ten
asymmetric co-op games for this list
we’re taking a look at cooperative games
that are classified as asymmetric
meaning that while two or more players
are playing at the same time they have
incredibly different tasks and abilities
boom-boom-boom-boom these include
assisting and navigation adding more
firepower in combat or solving complex
puzzles for the benefit of the team
class-based shooters do not count
so-sorry overwatch and not so sorry
evolve number 10 the Legend of Zelda the
Wind Waker
now we know what you’re thinking wind
waker never had a co-op function while
that is true for the wii u port wind
waker had an accessible co-op function
if you possessed a gameboy advance and a
link cable for the Gamecube titled the
tingle tuner a second player could
control tingle and through the Game Boy
Advance get an idea of links of
surroundings find valuable items or
hidden pass as a bonus the two players
are given a sign objective in finding
the golden tingle statues your payoff
will be big enough to make you yell uh
cool Impa I hate saying that
number 9 Star Fox zero while the game
overall has some of the weirdest
controls for a single-player campaign in
Nintendo’s history Star Fox zero does
have an enjoyable experience in the form
of cooperative play as co-pilots in the
iconic arwing 2 players can split the
tasks of a single-player experience with
one player shooting every enemy in sight
while the other puts their piloting
skills to the test
this fixes the majority of the issues of
playing through the game be a single
player providing a better control scheme
and a more entertaining experience in
taking down and Ross with a friend or
younger sibling oh and do a barrel roll
we legally have to say that every time
number 8 cook serve delicious ever
wanted to run a restaurant with a close
friend well maybe not but now you can as
a chef and waiter filling it’s not
rocket science
love fun dessert unhappy both equally
hectic and multi managing one player
takes orders and maintains sanitation
while the other cooks a variety of
different foods each with specific
button patterns as your business grows
so will the number of customers and
upgrades for recipes this often means
additional buttons and keys will need to
be pressed for a satisfied customer
and possibly tip money better get your
fast fingers ready cook serve delicious
will challenge your management skills
number 7 affordable space adventures the
Wii U has certainly been a rocky console
but some developers have put it’s
awkward game pad to some good use in
game design the Wii U gamepad functions
as a heads-down display giving the
engineer full control of engines tools
and system settings affordable space
adventures is one of those treasures
that lets you and up to two friends
voyage into the depths of space where
else encountering strange
extraterrestrials that don’t seem to
take a liking to your presence
if you want to survive you’ll have to
work together as pilot and engineer one
player steers the ship while the other
uses the game band to maintain the
engine’s thrusters and scanners these
will play a factor in not just
exploration but in awakening hostile
beasts so sit back relax and try not to
crash
number six Clem Nestene here you and a
buddy take on the roles of Russian spy
Katia Kozlova and expert hacker Martin
sim borsky in order to track down a
killer and bring him to justice why
couldn’t you just run when you had the
chance
playing as Katya will depend on the
player’s ability in shooting and
sneaking around facilities to avoid
being spotted Martin on the other hand
can use enemy security cameras to
observe the environment and help guide
Katya to key locations bribe guards or
just drop health and ammo supplies we
must assume our adversary has eyes and
ears everywhere
what makes clandestine such a unique
experience isn’t just the James
bond-like atmosphere but the engaging
and suspenseful gameplay that
successfully replicates the tense
moments between agent and hacker that
we’ve seen in our favorite spy films our
men won’t be alive for the raid tomorrow
maybe if we call the cops on these guys
they are the cops you’ve got to get him
out of it number 5 Mario Kart Double
Dash
after the success of Mario Kart 64 and
the release of the Gamecube we were all
curious to see the Mario Kart series
make the jump into a new generation
Nintendo could it be easily recycled the
formula but they went the extra mile and
introduced something new to the series
at the time cooperative racing
in double – one player can take the
duties of driving while the other can
fire shells place bananas or sideswipe
other racers with this feature it can be
crucial in communicating with your
partner if you want to go for the gold
and what made the partner system even
more interesting was matching different
characters with each other number four
Artemis spaceship bridge simulator ever
wanted to control your own starship
enterprise don’t want to wait for the
upcoming Star Trek VR game well lucky
for you Artemis
spaceship bridge simulator has you
covered give me a status on the screen
please holy Sh that’s bad you can gather
up to six of your friends to maneuver
your own spacecraft in order to take on
other teams in galactic warfare each
player looks at entirely different
screens making communication incredibly
important in achieving victory is gonna
be problematic
any requests docking I’ve requested
docking and a full arsenal of weapons
yes for example you may only see enemies
and allies on radar but another of your
friends could only focus on firing and
reloading the weapons it’s a voyage that
Captain Kirk would be jealous of number
3 rayman legends
the WiiU port of this game offers a more
unique cooperative adventure than it
does on the other platform Rayman
legends allows players to use the
gamepad pro to control Murphy a green
bottle fly who proved to be one of the
trickiest and most useful game
characters Murphy can assist Rayman and
friends in navigating through courses by
cutting rope to allow swinging or
dropping hazardous obstacles moving or
rotating platforms to avoid spikes or
activating switches to secret areas
while he is available to use in the ps4
and Xbox one versions of the game
Murphy proves the Wii U’s significance
and multiplayer by having the extra
fifth player support what can we say the
more the merrier
number 2 sonic the hedgehog 3 at a
glance the Sonic series doesn’t seem
like the type of game to be appropriate
for cooperative gameplay
not unless Sonic 3 has anything to say
about it in this game a second player
could take control of tails in order to
help sonic reach higher ground
this could lead to barely escaping death
or locating secret areas what’s better
is that tails can never die or make
Sonic lose rings it’s almost enough to
make us feel bad for calling the little
guy useless unless you of course lets on
drown better get comfortable because you
and your friend are gonna have a long
night if you want to find the 7 Chaos
Emeralds the worst part though you can’t
really rely on tails all the time before
we unveil our topic here a few honorable
mentions
number one keep talking and nobody
explodes dead no cooperative game has
proven to me more unique than this one
it’s there’s a C with a dot in it is it
backward C no it’s forwards see using
the supported virtual reality headset
one player is given a bomb with a large
number of symbols and puzzles scattered
around said mom any additional players
must make use of the printable manual
and communicate with the diffusal player
about what they see this can prove very
challenging from the confusing symbols
and number patterns if that wasn’t
stressful enough it basically all rests
in one player’s hands to effectively
describe what they see in order to win
do you cut the red wire or the blue wire
as if it was that simple no way oh you
HHH euhh hit ready it exploded do you
