Can anyone recommend an Xbox game where 2 players have to work together?

My 11 yr old DD and 8 year old DS really enjoyed playing Harry Potter Lego on the Xbox as they could play it simultaneously, and had to work together to play the game.

Can anyone recommend any similar Xbox game, where it takes a bit of conversation and cooperation to play the game together?

The "Trine" series is great, although as the name suggests they are really designed for 3 players, if you're ever able to join in!

Although now I notice it has a "12" certificate. I can't remember scary bits, but I did play it with older kids.
All of the other Lego games are also really good!

Human Fall Flat, it's hilarious

I was going to say human fall flat too, it’s a puzzle game and so much fun.

Unravel, it’s very sweet :)

It takes two.
Have to work together or you can't really play it lol

A way out, really good co/op where you escape prison and a great story too, DH and I fell out over parts!

I was going to say Unravel as well. There's also an Unravel 2. Not sure if they're still on the game pass.

A lot of the Lego games are very similar and IIRC, Lego Jurrasic World also has co-op type sections.

I second Unravel. It's so beautiful.

Also 'It Takes Two' which is incredibly collaborative and another stunning game. My daughter and I played it together and it was really quite bonding because you have to communicate all the time.

Overcooked (get the All You Can Eat version) is brilliant! It can be played solo but it's nowhere near as fun.

Also Moving Out and KeyWe, both can be played solo but more fun together.

And the other Lego games as mentioned! We love the ones based on films/books, Lego Movie 1&2 are both good, so is The Incredibles. But our favourite is Lego City Undercover.

It’s old now (actually a 360 game) but Portal 2. It’s excellent. Me and my 11 year old have just completed it. There’s a single player story too. He loved It Takes Two as well which he played with his dad.
