How we pick games like Split Fiction
The order depends on how much each game has in common with Split Fiction. Style of play and genre (Adventure & puzzles) count the most, then whether you play on the same side or against each other, and after that pace, setting and camera, with the most-played game going first when two are tied. Every game here runs on at least one platform that Split Fiction is on, so nobody in the group needs new hardware to switch.
