The Toolbox · Co-op Night Picker
Got a crew, a free night and no plan? Tell me how many of you there are, how long you’ve got and the mood, and I’ll deal three games off my own shelf, with my hours on each. Don’t like the hand? Reroll it.
The picker needs JavaScript to shuffle the deck. With it off, every game I own, co-op shelf included, is in the Vault.
Tonight’s hand
What the picker deals from
If the picker will not load, here is the same shelf in plain text. It deals from my own library: 990 games in the Vault as of October 18, 2026, each with my hours on it.
How many of you. Playing alone, anything in the Vault can come up. With two or more, it only deals games tagged Co-op or built head to head (fighting, sports, racing and MOBA games), so single-player games stay out. That is 323 games right now.
How much time. The library has no session lengths, so time is read from genres. 30 minutes leans on quick genres like arcade, fighting, sports, racing, platformers, puzzle and shooters, and skips RPG, strategy, sim, tactical and adventure. 1 to 2 hours takes anything. All night leans on the long genres and games I have 50 or more hours in.
What vibe. Chill is for coasting. Focus is for the deep dives. Chaos is for when something needs to get hit. Stoned-approved is the shortlist from my post on gaming stoned.
Most-played games for two or more players, by vibe, with my hours:
- Chill: NBA 2K20 (328 h), New World: Aeternum (268 h), Kenshi (256 h), FIFA 18 (181 h), No Man’s Sky (171 h).
- Focus: Chivalry 2 (466 h), NBA 2K20 (328 h), New World: Aeternum (268 h), Kenshi (256 h), Age of Empires II (2013) (187 h).
- Chaos: Chivalry 2 (466 h), Battlefield 1 (183 h), Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (130 h), Diablo IV (122 h), Far Cry 5 (112 h).
- Stoned-approved: Chivalry 2 (466 h), Kenshi (256 h), No Man’s Sky (171 h), Sea of Thieves: 2024 Edition (157 h), Minecraft (103 h).
It never puts two games from one series in the same hand, and you can reroll until everyone is in. Browse the whole Vault for the full list.
