But perhaps the best part of Guacamelee is the ability to play co-op with friends! That might be a valid reason to run through the agave fields once more. As a [metroidvania](/tags/metroidvania), compared to the big hitters, it doesn't quite hold up: it's not as deep and atmospheric, has less emphasis on exploration, and is quite short. But as a funny brawler with some intense platform sections, it can be quite enjoyable. -Guacamelee 2 is also ported to the Nintendo Switch, but for now, I'm done wrestling with skeletons as a lunchador. +Guacamelee 2 is also ported to the Nintendo Switch, but for now, I'm done wrestling with skeletons as a luchador.
