Anticipating co-op partner actions requires real-time social reads
Super Mario Kart
Two-player battles reward predicting the rival

Level hazards and order queues introduce random variation
Super Mario Kart
Item rolls swing close races

Overcooked 2
Optimal kitchen routing and task assignment is learnable per level
Super Mario Kart
Racing lines and shortcut mastery
