If Human: Fall Flat worked for the two of you, you already know what you are looking for: something you cannot finish alone. Here is what we would play after it.
What made Human: Fall Flat work
Worth naming, because it is the thing to match: it gave each of you information the other did not have, so the game only moved forward when you talked. Any decent alternative has to do the same β a game where you both see the same screen and press the same buttons is a solo game with an audience.
