If you have been looking for the video game equivalent of marriage counseling, boy do I have a suggestion for you: Grab your significant other and go play A Way Out.

A Way Out seems like a tough sell. The cooperative narrative game, which requires you to play the whole thing alongside a second person, probably isn't for everyone. But it sure was for a lot of people - more than EA seems to have expected.

While the writing and plot might have been a little hokey, there's something about being able to share a story. So you're looking for narrative experiences for a party or to kill some time with a friend, here's 15 games worth checking out.

As soon as I saw people streaming A Way Out, I knew I'd have a field day looking up their reactions to the game's ending. Get ready to hear a lot of people screaming "what?!"

A Way Out merges narrative games with couch co-op, and the result is a smart and emotional experience so good that it had to be reviewed by two Kotaku writers. We've never played a cooperative experience like it.

The co-op prison break game A Way Out dropped yesterday, and it's a marvel we'd recommend to any two people who are up for playing a six-hour game together. We highly recommend you go into it blind, just knowing that it's an adventure made for two players and does some smart, creative things. If you need some convincing, here's some impressions from the two staffers who played, and loved, it.

The fantastic prison break co-op game A Way Out dropped yesterday. In order to play it, you'll need to grab a friend, whether that be couch co-op or online. If you're opting to play online, don't worry. It's hilariously simple. Your partner doesn't even need a copy of the game.

Released this week across PC, PS4 and Xbox One, A Way Out is a co-op only experience from the makers of Brothers: A Tale of Two Souls. As you'd expect, there's a bunch of puzzles where two people need to be in different places, some of which are timing related. But just after an hour, the game dropped a fun little timing puzzle that woke my partner and I right up.

A new leak from the mega-publisher Electronic Arts reveals a marketing plan for two of the company's smaller games, and while there's nothing particularly extraordinary in here, it makes for an interesting peek inside the sausage factory.

Josef Fares, director of Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons and the upcoming A Way Out, delivered a spirited, invigorated, profanity-powered speech at The Game Awards this evening, covering his real and true feelings on the Oscars and loot boxes. I can't do it justice. Just watch and enjoy.

We've seen all the E3 trailers, announcement and gameplay demos, but one question remains: Which game characters were the best dressed? Here's a few of my favourite looks from the games we saw.

Games tend to have trouble depicting black hair, but this year's E3 displayed refreshing palette of kinky, coily, textured hair. Here's a breakdown.

A Way Out was one of the biggest surprises of the EA press conference. An indie title made by the designer behind Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, it is a co-op narrative game that puts players in the shoes of two convicts on the run. After playing a short session, the game shows promise.
