I think it’s on game pass so it should be easy to try out

Thanks, downloaded it in game pass!

Stardew Valley - a nice and cosy little farming sim, for a relaxed evening

Divinity Original Sin 2 - an entire RPG playable in split-screen co-op, with hard strategic turn based combat

Introduced my partner to both of these games. We completed DOS1 together and played countless hours of Stardew Valley - she would take care of the animals and I would take care of the plants.

For the King is a game I don't the mentioned a lot but it's great. It's much like divinity original sin but more roguelike. My girlfriend doesn't like divinity but absolutely loves For the King.

I've been wanting to check this game out forever. Glad it was mentioned in this thread. I think I'll finally give it a play [=

My wife is in the same boat. Here are some games we play:

- Narrative games. Think anything from Quantic Dreams (Heavy Rain, Detroit), lots of Nancy Drew games, Tell tale Games (Walking Dead). Note that none of these are co-op, but they're fun to pass and play. - Simple platforming games (we're currently playing Kirby and the forbidden land on Switch, will probably play Mario Odyssey after. I let her play the main character but take over if it ever gets tough) - Puzzle type games (Portal)

She isn't great at games, but she's getting better, and she enjoys playing them.

Lovers in a dangerous spacetime You are controlling a spaceship with up to four people, bit with all these weapons, shield and steering you have to swap between these or at least coordinate. Really enjoyed this with 3 other friends but might be even more fun with just 1 or 2 extra players as there should be more running around the spaceship

A Way Out, by the same developer - very campy and a bit shorter. Overcooked - test your relationship.

Portal 2 co-op

My girlfriend and I like puzzle games and would strongly recommend “ibb and obb” and “death squared”

Overcooked 2

My wife and I enjoyed Children of Morta.

The various Lego games are surprising fun and very forgiving to a second player.

Brothers - A Tale of Two Sons

Don't Starve Together on PS4, me and my gf have hundreds hours on it.

Goose Game

Cook, Serve, Delicious 1 and 3 will give you hundreds of hours of ~fun~.
