Best Xbox games for the family

These two are inseparable for us. Overcooked: All you Can Eat takes four of you to the kitchen to chop, cook, fry, and serve up delectable meals for unseen greedy mouths. Overcooked’s genius is in its absolute panic-inducing time limits. Burgers have to be made, pasta cooked, salad sorted, plates washed, and final dishes out the door with such a stringent limit it causes absolute carnage. So, you and the cookery squad need to be organised and diligent. It never happens. You always set fire to the meat. Your cousin always yeets a lettuce into the bin from across the room. Your sister always bumps one of the other chefs into the water while they were carrying a completed meal. This is the rotisserie of fun Overcooked presents for you, and boy, you can’t escape its stressy joys.

Moving Out is the perfect pairing with Overcooked. In the former, you are kitchen-bound and in the latter, you have a house to roam. Objects for you to pack into the back of a truck are everywhere. Some are massive, requiring a bit of creative thinking. Some are delicate, requiring soft throw and catch. With that familiar four-player co-op, chaotic action, and wildly differing ideas of acceptable ways to treat furniture, Moving Out will get the whole family talking.
