Finally found a co-op game my non-gamer wife actually likes

My wife has never been into video games, but last Sunday I convinced her to try Stardew Valley split-screen on our Xbox. We spent like 4 hours just planting parsnips and talking to Linus, and she actually asked to play again the next day. Has anyone else had luck getting a partner into cozy games when they normally hate gaming?

Buddy's fiancée hated gaming till they tried It Takes Two. Now she's hooked.

Wait, she actually liked It Takes Two?

Did that actually improve their relationship outside of the game though? I've seen couples get really into co-op games together but then it fizzles out once they finish the campaign and they're back to fighting over the remote. Like was she actually invested in the gameplay or just happy to spend time together?
