This is a collection of 2D challenges and platformer games in which players traverse through various modes (e.g., speedrun, survival). Several challenges involve reaching specific points, while others prompt players to defeat small enemies or survive brief battles. Some games depict pixelated characters using small swords or arrows to strike at enemies; enemies typically get stunned or disappear in a flash.

(can't vouch for the Switch version as we played on Game Pass) It Takes Two (same as above - can't see this running too well on Switch tbh but stranger things have happened) The Stretchers Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker Swords of Ditto (easy mode - default rogue settings are poor) Nobody Saves the World (took a while to get into but Tilly loved it in the end) Spiritfarer Unravel Two Knights & Bikes Chicory If you're after solo stuff suitable for younger players (that also work as pass-the-pad goodness - I enjoyed helping out all of these): Alba, A Short Hike, Lil' Gator Game, Toem, Wandersong, Jenny LeClue Detectivu (trust me), What the Golf (also has a great vs mode), Super Lucky's Tail (surprisingly solid 3D platformer), Hidden Folks, Donut County, Untitled Goose Game (this does have a co-op mode now but we found it annoying), A Night in the Woods (technically not suitable for young'uns).

Super cheap bangers that are often <£3: Rive (YMMV), Not a Hero, Steamworld Digs/Heist, Downwell, Gris, Ruiner, Mother Russia Bleeds, Switch' n Shoot, Akane, Supermarket Shriek, Ape Out, OlliOlli Switch Stance.
Tilly is adamant that Knights & Bikes is her favourite game on the list but it definitely isn't. She did like it though (and then read the books).
