Overview
Description

Fall Guys is a free-to-play massively multiplayer party royale where dozens of jellybean characters stumble through colorful obstacle courses and mini-games until one winner remains. It is pure, chaotic fun.

Payday 2 is an action-packed, four-player co-op shooter that once again lets gamers don the masks of the original crew: Dallas, Hoxton, Wolf and Chains as they descend on Washington D.C. for an epic crime spree. Two years after the events of the first game, the Payday gang relocates to Washington, D.C. to carry out a new wave of heists, working through complex contracts from freeing arrested members to uncovering massive conspiracies.

Fall Guys has been my go-to lately. Easy to pick up. One gripe: cosmetic monetization. Would recommend.
