Not the most interesting game I have ever played but it is well worth picking up. The graphics are beautiful and the lighting is exquisite. The play is fun as are the fights (although short lived). You can usually find the bundle on sale so I would recommend picking it up. A nice game for every once in a while play. More

While it is a Co-Op game its not a game I want to play. This is more of a kids friendly game so if you're a hardcore gamer then this wont be for you. This is more of a story driven team up than a Co-Op as you need to do things together in order to beat the level instead of a traditional Co-Op which allows both players to do different things at the same time. More

Lego and Star Wars have always been a hit combo. Being able to play both all the way through the complete saga is awesome. I have no doubt that it will become a big hit and it looks like many people have very few negative things to say about it. More

I am on Steam and love some good Local Co-Op games. I just started playing Vagante. The graphics are not all that great for 2017 but the game play is real enjoyable. I love playing this with other people. It is still being developed so I expect it to only get better with time. More

Vagante is a retro style game that plays similarly to Mario because you are moving your character across an obstacle course. I like it a lot because it is multiplayer and the story is more immersive. More

I love finding good games that I can just sit on the couch and play with friends or my boyfriend. Vagante is a local co-op game on steam that's set in the dark fantasy realm. It's a pretty challenging game, but I enjoy it and would recommend it to others. More

I love playing 2D games that send me back to the first arcade games I played. I went looking on Steam for a good Local Co-Op game, and stumbled on Rayman Origins. I love the look of this game, and this 4-player co-op classic is lots of fun to play in both Windows and Mac OS. More

This is an absurdly fun game. It's really simple in design, but that also allows you to pick it up and start almost instantly. You'll progressively get better and use these simple mechanics to pull off even more complex ordeals. That being said, it's solid. Try it out. More

Spelunky is a cool platformer that you can play on your own or with friends. It has a character that is a lot like Mario except he digs. The worlds look kind of like Mario and Maplestory mashed together. It looks fun and interactive. More

Worms Revolution is one of the best Local Co-Op game on Steam. The game was one of my first experiences playing a co-op game.

This is an awesome couch multiplayer game to play with friends. They have to be the fun creative type that don't get mad when they lose because you will all lose a lot but its funny to play and watch.

I found this game very old school, but also a ton of fun. I usually think of co-op games as all for one, but in this one it's more all against one as people are playing the montsters you're trying to defeat, and who ever kills you, get's to be the "hero." It's an interesting concept and generated overwhelming postive reviews which I see as well deserved. More

The game itself is okay. I found myself quite bored after an hour of play. The graphics are okay for the type of game it is but I've seen better.

This game is fun and highly addictive. It has awesome graphics and game volume.

The screenshots appear to be decent, not top shelf, but decent given the price of the game. It does have decent ratings and it has been purchased over a half a million times, though purchased and played are two completely different things when it comes to Steam with their legendary sales. The game itself, based on the hardware requirements, is certainly not a resource hog and should be playable on most systems. All in all, I would say that this appears to be a pretty good game for the price. I'd certainly consider buying it. More

An old game, so if you like the super edgy new worlds and styles, this one is not for you. I must say I was not too impressed with the graphics, even knowing the game is 10 years old. I've played many games older than that which were better looking and smoother to play. But it feels like a classic, and I'm sure a lot of people will enjoy it. More
