Yeah I know what you mean there’s surprisingly few games that hit the sweet spot. The latest sackboy is probably the best one I’ve played in that you both get to play a full character (ie no boring cappy), it drops extra lives like a sieve if someone isn’t doing very well, so the adult can usually get you both through a tough level and there’s plentiful checkpoints. It does get hard towards the end game but there’s a lot of content before then.

I originally thought super mario would be good but the older ones are surprisingly hard for younger players. Although that reminds me Super Mario 3D World / Bowsers Fury is pretty good for co-op too if you’ve not tried it yet.

I’ll also mention its worth playing any game with a builder, my son loves building his own tracks in track mania turbo for instance.
