Rockets Are Super Hard: Relaunch

Armed with a guide book, you must collaborate to successfully launch a rocket.

Being able to launch a manned rocket into space is arguably one of the greatest achievements in human history. In “Rockets Are Super Hard: Relaunch”, you can experience the excitement in the control center during the launch of a space mission firsthand. Unsurprisingly, this can be a very complex affair. It is literally rocket science.

The game includes 20 campaign missions with randomly generated elements. In order to successfully start a rocket, you have to press a series of buttons, operate control panels and follow instructions under time pressure. This is done with the help of a 100+ page PDF manual, which can be downloaded in advance. Due to the tight time limit, a hectic exchange with your crew quickly ensues.

In terms of gameplay, “Rockets Are Super Hard: Relaunch” is reminiscent of the fantastic “Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes”, in which you have to defuse a bomb with the help of your friends. The gameplay has been successfully transferred to a different setting with added complexity. If this sounds interesting to you, you should give “Rockets Are Super Hard: Relaunch” a try.

Why you should play it:

  • Intense co-op gameplay where only one person needs a screen.
  • 20 campaign missions and different types of rockets.

Please note: Theoretically, this title can be played with any number of people, but we don’t think it should be more than 6.

About us

Great couch co-op games are hard to find? Not anymore!

We love couch co-op games. Nothing beats the joy of sitting in the same room, playing some fun games and experiencing the reactions of your friends firsthand. Sure, online multiplayer modes can be fun, too, but couch co-op has always been the best type of multiplayer games for us.

If you are like us, you play local multiplayer games on a regular basis, either with your kids or your friends. Every platform has some couch co-op classics, like “Mario Kart 8 Deluxe” and “Super Mario Party” on Nintendo Switch or “Sackboy: A Big Adventure” on PS5. While these couch co-op games can be played over and over again, you may want to try something new from time to time. So, where do you find interesting, new titles? Sometimes you get great recommendations from friends, but most of the time you need to do your own research.

Most game stores like Steam, PlayStation/Microsoft Store or Nintendo eShop offer categories for local multiplayer games. However, they either feature just a handful of new games or list thousands of entries. Websites for couch co-op games do exist, but they try to list them all, even the not-so-good ones. Gaming related blogs and magazines write about couch co-op games from time to time, but it’s not their main subject. You probably don’t want to search on the internet for hours and hunt for hidden gems. You want to find great, new games without the hassle. That’s why we’ve came up with the idea for Couch Co-Op Favorites.

We put together lists of handpicked couch co-op games, filterable by platform, player count and relevant features. On this website you can quickly find new games which have been tested by people like you. Save time researching, spend more time with friends and family.

We love couch co-op games

We’re a group of friends from Northern Germany with a deep passion for couch co-op games, born out of way too much research during our student days. We don’t know every title out there, but we certainly know a lot of excellent games for different platforms and audiences. We play regularly, but we still identify as casual gamers. We believe that not every gaming related site needs to look like it has been made for stereotypical gamers. That’s why we’ve decided to make this site look friendly and approachable.

Our mission is simple: bring joy to people looking for great couch co-op games and support indie developers along the way.

We personally test every game

All games listed here are handpicked by us. We’re not paid by developers to feature their games. Developers may send us their games for free, but this doesn’t influence our opinon about these games. If we list a game, we genuinely like it. It’s that simple. No ads, no affiliate links, just good games.

Are you working on a couch co-op game?

If you’re working on a couch co-op game, feel free to send us a short email with a link to your press kit and a few codes. To be able to test a game properly, we use multiple platforms (PC and at least one console, if possible). Currently, we prefer to test on Steam (Windows/Ubuntu) and on Nintendo Switch (EU/Germany). Please understand that we cannot publish a review for every game. As our time is limited, we are unable to test any betas or games in “Early Access”. Additionally, we priotize games which are available on multiple platforms (not Steam only).

If you’re not sure wether your game is “good enough” or if you haven't been feeling very confident lately, please consider reaching out anyway. We are regular people, just like you, and we try to answer every email!

Know a great game or found a typo?

Whether you’re an indie developer or simply a couch co-op fan, we’d love to hear from you. Feel free to send us an email or start a conversation on Twitter! 😊 🎼
