God of War 2D I Want Shank 3 My wife said if this review gets 100 likes and 50 awards, she will…Playing Solo or cooperatively, it challenges players to defend objectives against waves upon waves of enemies.The addition of a Survival Mode also provided substantial replay value.kinda good CO-Op experience with friend.Why it fits
Check it if you want action, adventure filtered by weird, single-player, co-op.
