ABOUT THE GAME

Better With A Friend is a collection of hand drawn games specifically for the Steam Deck that you can only play with somebody else.Better With A Friend is a homage to older games that I used to play back in the day during high school. Either on paper, some random flash game website, one of my first phones or a DOS PC that later became the Windows 95 computer. The time that it was virtually impossible to play against each other over the internet. Not counting those text based browser strategy games that my friends and I frequently visited during computer class. You basically had to be at the same place with all your friends to play games. For some games even sharing a keyboard or mouse.The initial release of Better With A Friend includes 4 games and more games will be added at a later stage!Dots N BoxesA classic from High School making sure you capture most of the boxes. TriviaDo you know better? Check your knowledge with Triva! Two categories are now included and more will be added over time! All questions are hand curated.TicTacToeThe way to battle who needs to do the dishes: TicTacToeTennisAn homage to older games needs to have Tennis included.
