What each player can do here
- Runs two of the four heroes on the field: one Joy-Con or a Pro Controller each, on the same Switch.
- In Citadel on the Hill, Player 1's team moves Toad.
- Runs the other two heroes. Friendly fire is on, so a stray shot can hit the partner's heroes.
- In Citadel on the Hill, Player 2's team moves Toadette.
If your skill levels differ: The fights are turn-based, so a newer player can take each move at their own pace; the mode is built around the two players talking through and syncing their turns. How to split the roles
