Rayman Legends is the friendliest group game on this list. Ubisoft sends Rayman, Globox and the Teensies through a set of paintings into five worlds, from a towering beanstalk to Mount Olympus, where you rescue kidnapped Teensies and find secrets. Up to four players can join on one screen, and Kung Foot adds a local versus mode for breaks between levels. The musical maps, where jumps and punches land on the beat of rock and salsa tracks, are its most memorable idea, and Steam shows a Metacritic score of 89. It finishes tenth for practical reasons. At $29.99, it costs twice as much as Hollow Knight. Its English Steam reviews are 86% positive, the lowest share here, from a much smaller base of about 4,400. Steam does not list full controller support for it, and it is Windows only. For families who want a bright co-op platformer, it remains a good choice.
