Moving Out 2 takes the same idea as Overcooked, a team racing a clock, and swaps the kitchen for house moves. You and your partner carry sofas, fridges and boxes out of houses and into a van, and couches that will not fit through doors become a shared problem to solve. The Steam page says you can play solo or with up to three friends, with local co-op or a cross-play online session, which is an improvement over the first game. An assist mode and accessibility options let couples ease the time limits, which helps when one partner finds timed games stressful. The game costs $29.99 on Steam. It sits low in the ranking because its Steam rating is Mostly Positive from fewer than 500 reviews, a much thinner record than the other picks, and because the price is high for a game built on short, repeating jobs.
Who it is for
