I played it with my kids in coop mode.
What's great is the progression system. You start very poor, having to cut wood, with nowhere to go that far. The areas and what you can do unfold themselves step by step.
Up to four in split screen. We played it with my two kids in couch coop. We where three in split screen. Each player has one house. The money is shared, so I was working to get money, while my kids were exploring and having fun.
I don't remember exactly but one player is mandatory (the one starting the "save"/"world"), then the three others are optional. However you don't want to play a lot without the other characters since they will not progress (the more you do something with one character like cutting wood, the easier it is for this character).

I also played with my kids on lan, and they love it. Had to discipline them a bit to water the plants 😀
Can only play 2 players at once though right?
