4-5 player game recommendations?

I have 4 idiot friends, we’re all competitive, but we primarily like working together as a team. We like Phasmophobia, but we’re looking for something else to break apart the repetition. Here’s some of the following we’ve played:

Repo
Minecraft
Kitty Powers (don’t ask, it’s a long story.)
Life 2 on steam

But that’s about it. Our price range I’d say is maybe 2 dollars to 10. But it’d be nice to have five player games, a lot of games only allow four which is frustrating.

Yapyap is a game you can play.
Super Battle Golf is just a friendly game of golf you can play with up to 8 people.
The Last Citadel is a 4 player extraction sword and sorcery game
I’m not sure how many players you can play Eversiege with but it isn’t out until the end of march anyway.
Witchbrook is a weird online co-op sandbox that supports up to 4 players.
gang of frogs is… legally distinct battletoads with maybe loot
endalor is one I would look at and make a decision on if I was looking at games to make a decision on.
nullpoint protocol might be a bit too close to wow’s high end gameplay
ace combat 8 aparently supports 4+ players
Kyora is another multiplayer sandbox
Ham The Game i a multiplayer factory game
westlanders looks like they were trying to ape RDR2 multiplayer mods
Shadows of Chroma Tower is 4 player kingsfield + classic D&D mashup
Lort and Enshrouded your group probably already has but if you don’t go ahead and peep em
Peak has new maps daily, and your group has to climb them
Barony is half off right now with its 5.0 update
I don’t know how Palworld Multiplayer works but you can apparently do that

we were looking at yapyap but it’s not out yet unforunately, but it does look like a lot of fun. thanks for the recommendations!

In terms of RTS games tho, lot of good stuff going on over in that genre.

Sins of a Solar Empire II is really nice, great modernization of the original

Tempest Rising has been out a bit over a year and is meant to be like command and conquer.

D.O.R.F. Real-Time Strategic Conflict takes some other aspects from command and conquer and turns them up to 11, but it isn’t out yet.

The ones I’m watching are Ashes of the Singularity 2 and Sanctuary Shattered Sun but for completely separate reasons, Ashes 2 looks like its a good modern implementation of a strategic theater and the way you’re setting up and maneuvering your armies is almost reminiscent of what you’d expect in modern theater planning, while Sanctuary Shattered Sun is trying to become the successor to Supreme Commander FAFF

I know your friends are friendly but I don’t know if all of yinz are RTS friendly.

they’re a little dumb for RTS, even I’m stupid for RTS LOL. only one friend is good at rts games which is league.
