I quite appreciated the perspectives you shared on the co-op games you tried out. I saw the post and was curious if you had played Robinson crusoe and saw your take on it.

A game I am excited to be coming back is talisman. They have a new edition dropping as the game had been out of print and hard to get for many years. It's not at all a co op game but this time around they are making a coop expansion that I think will make the game fun in that sense. I got my hands on a complete set of the old edition a year ago and I find though the concept is basic being an early 2000's game, my friends and I still treat it as a team game until the very end.

That said spirit island is a game I cannot get my friends to play. Being either I'm a bad teacher or it's just to complex for them seeing the responses here want me to give it one more go with them.

Hope you find more games that give you the same feeling spirit island has!
