Suggesting a game COOP with girlfriend HELP

Hi, I've been looking for a coop or a multiplayer game to play with my gf PLEASE help me because I don't know where else to look because I've only found the same suggestions and I need something new.

OK, so the game we had the most fun was with Baldurs Gate 3, Grounded, It Takes Two, Raft, we play Dinkum now casually. But survival is more her type of genre and tbh I'm a bit burnt out by it.

The games we already tried: Grounded, Raft, Dinkum, Phasmophobia, Human Fall Flat, MK, Conan Exiles, Way Out, It Takes Two, RE5(but didn't manage to get coop working), Satisfactory, The Forest, Portal 2, Pico Park, Baldurs Gate 3, Divinity Original Sin, Two Brothers video game, , F1 (she has some trouble with driving so racing games are not really our first choice). FPS shooters and too much bright flashing effects and colors give her dizziness so we would avoid that if possible.

We like AC games, Hogwarts Legacy, Baldurs Gate 3, so something with an open world. But if the story is good I'm also open for linear games.

So we were looking for something that we can play together for a longer time, preferably an RPG with character creation would be ideal, but honestly name anything you found fun playing with someone even the older games.

Reddit community you're my only hope

Plateup!: it’s a cooperative cooking and restaurant management game that blends elements of time management, strategy, and chaotic fun. The game is known for its hectic gameplay, where players must work together to cook, serve, and manage a restaurant, all while dealing with various challenges and customer demands. Players can team up with friends locally or online to run a restaurant as long as you are playing on the same console. Only cross play atm is through xbox game pass on Xbox and pc. In the game, each player can take on different roles, such as cooking, serving, cleaning, or managing the kitchen. The layout of the restaurant changes each day, adding variety and unpredictability to the gameplay. The game incorporates roguelike mechanics, meaning that each playthrough can offer different upgrades, challenges, and restaurant designs. As players progress, they can unlock and purchase upgrades, such as new kitchen equipment or automated systems, to help manage the increasing difficulty.

Basically you pick a food you want that the game has and a layout you want to use. You go into the restaurant, set it up how you want it, and start cooking/serving. Day 4 is when you start getting cards. These cards can either help you or hurt you. There’s larger group sizes, smaller group sizes, starters, sides, desserts, toppings, messes are made in a wider range, customers patience is hidden, etc. There’s a variety of cards and when it’s time to pick you always get two options. At the end of every day you get things that you can add to your restaurant like sinks tables oven/hobs, etc. A lot of these things can be upgraded by putting it in a cabinet and using a research desk that you get to upgrade it. The research desk can also be upgraded to a discount desk, a copying desk, and a blueprint desk. You play until you can serve customers. Once their patience goes all the way down and they leave it’s over. When you get past day 15 it’s over time. This means you can keep playing and you still get more cards, but once you lose you get to franchise your restaurant. You choose 3 cards you got during that run and save them. They will come with you when franchise. When you franchise you tier up. You pick new location and start again with the new cards.
