There is a modified co-op campaign that requires players to coordinate their actions to succeed. This makes it a fun couch co-op game due to the importance of communication (as well as how fun it is to grief your teammate in person).

The difficulty curve for Battle Block Theater is so evenly programmed that the player will barely notice things are getting harder. It really does an impressive job of training the player to handle any challenge the game throws at them.

BattleBlock Theatre features online and local co-op modes.

The witty humor, enjoyable songs, and cutscenes all demonstrate the high level of care and consideration that went into BattleBlock’s design. These things all add up to a game with polish that still stay unique enough to stand out.

The game has a built-in level editor, and levels (or level packs) can be shared through the Steam Workshop.
