Quick picks by group size

Fast guide

• Trio or quad, try The Mimic or Anime Battle Arena

• Five to eight, try Those Who Remain

Overview

Rainbow Friends: Spooky teamwork that stays light

I start people here because it is simple to learn and funny when things go wrong. You collect items, hide, and call out paths. The scares are mild, so new players do not freeze up. The loop is short, so you can swap teammates fast.

Tips that help:

• Call out colors and rooms, short words keep the team calm

• One person scouts, the rest pick up items, then switch

• Private server nights feel better if your group talks a lot

Try Rainbow Friends if you want spooky vibes without stress. It works well with kids, but adults still laugh when someone hides in the wrong box.

DOORS: Tension that makes everyone listen

Runs are tight and clean. You move room by room, listen for cues, and react. The design teaches patience, which is rare in party games. Voice chat helps, but text callouts work too.

Make it last:

• Give one player the job of reading patterns, one the job of looting

• Do two short runs instead of one long run, the break resets focus

• If someone tilts, let them spectate a round, then rotate back in

The Mimic: Story horror that hits harder in co-op

This one is for squads that like to commit. Chapters play like short horror films. Puzzles are simple, the mood does the work. It is great for small groups that enjoy talking through the story between checkpoints.

How we keep it fun:

• Put one steady player at the front, one at the back, swap every checkpoint

• If a puzzle stalls, set a two minute limit, then peek a hint

• End after a chapter, save the next chapter for another night

Anime Battle Arena: Fair PvP that stays fun

If your crew needs a break from spooky, queue some brawls. The move sets have depth, but basic combos click fast. Duos and trios feel best, bigger lobbies get loud but still hype.

Simple rules that reduce tilt:

• First to three wins, then switch characters

• One mirror match per set, keeps the salt down

• Rotate one new player in every set, momentum stays fresh

Those Who Remain: Zombie waves with clutch saves

Wave defense is the sweet spot for mixed skill groups. Everyone has a job, and no one feels useless. You hold angles, share ammo, and celebrate saves. Maps are readable, so new players learn by watching.

Ways to keep the group engaged:

• Call roles at the start, one medic, one ammo lead, one revive lead

• Spend money between waves in a clear order, guns first, perks later

• End on a high, do not grind past the last good wave

Speed run list for busy nights

• Rainbow Friends, easy lobby, fast laughs

• DOORS, two focused runs

• The Mimic, one chapter, then stop

• Anime Battle Arena, first to three, new picks each set

• Those Who Remain, one map, stop after the cleanest wave

For different group sizes, use the quick picks above: DOORS or Rainbow Friends for duos, The Mimic for trios, Anime Battle Arena for small PvP stacks, and Those Who Remain for bigger squads.
