Are there any fun games for 2 children (around 13y) to play on one computer?

Ordered by amount of "potential" replayability, vaguely
I've played all these through and am confident it'd be ok for 13 yos
If they like silly chaos and cooking games, $20 PlateUp!
If they like absolute madness and precise button inputs to make pretty food, $20 Cook, Serve, Delicious! 3?!
Rock of ages series I think all have local multiplayer, but I think $30 > on sale for $3 till sept 1 rn Rock of Ages 3: Make & Break is the only one you can do the actual story mode together (which is very fun) instead of just versus. describing this one is hard uh. Both a tower defense as well as a reverse tower defense where you play as a boulder smashing things. historical art humour themed. very silly. highly recommend this series.
$15 Tricky towers is competitive tetris with balancing physics
$14 Neurovoider is a straightforward / small scope game, robot piece-swapping twin stick shooter, very arcadey
$20 Ember knights is in the same vein as neurovoider but with flamey dudes and more fantasy / magic theme
On looking in to it some more I am fairly certain you can also play $15 Rock of Ages 2's campaign as splitscreen co-op. Did not remember offhand but looked around at steam discussions. 2 is also very good!
