In the mood to play a coop deckbuilder where you are building something together with the other player(s) but can't think of one. Are there any?

Aeons End is what you want, excellent deckbuilder and the legacy version is great.. Star Realms: Frontiers is fun solo or coop, and Orleans (bag building) coop mode from the expansion is very satisfying.

I'd like to play a bit more of Aeon's End. I didn't get along very well with the app but it still felt like it was very focused on fighting the nemesis. I wonder if other nemeses (?) have different approaches. I'll look into the other two!

Yeah, until I saw that you didn't want a fighting game, I was going to put Superhot up there as a go-to. Cities: Skylines is a co-op city-builder, but that doesn't have the deck-building aspect you're looking for.

he made Superhot, I assume he thought of it ;)

UGH, fingers =/= brain ... I /MEANT/ to type Aeon's End... AE: Legacy is probably one of my favorite legacy style games I've played so far, and I love the way both player-order and organizing your discards works there to add other layers of randomness + strategy.

It does look good! The main reasons I haven't got it are price and box size but it still seems to be mostly about fighting the nemeses every time.

That's the main reason I felt it didn't fit with your description. To be fair, I can't think of too many co-op games (deck-building or otherwise) other than Cities: Skylines that aren't oriented around combat. Even the Pandemic series is combat oriented vs an NPC/disease.

I'll check it out! Good point about Pandemic. To me it doesn't feel like combat since the verbs aren't "fight" or "kill" and there is no damage count.

going through a random top-40 list I found, there's Hanabi, Pandemic, Atlantis Rising, a couple abstracts, not much else. Violent verbs are preeety prevalent

Yeah, once you start noticing it, you really can't stop. It's far too common in both boardgames and videogames. That's the main reason I'd like to play/make something with more constructive.

I do love Palm Island. I can see how it could be taken as a deck-builder, though it hits more as a very compact engine-builder for me.
