video game that permits only one player
A single-player video game is a game that can only be played by one person at a time, rather than multiple players competing or cooperating together. These games matter because they offer players a self-contained experience where they can progress through a story or challenges at their own pace without depending on other people.

Encyclopedic overview
A screenshot of the game Frozen Bubble A single-player video game is a video game where input from only one player is expected throughout the gameplay. Video games in general can feature several game modes, including single-player modes designed to be played by a single player in addition to multi-player modes.
Most modern console games, PC games and arcade games are designed so that they can be played by a single player; although many of these games have modes that allow two or more players to play (not necessarily simultaneously), very few actually require more than one player for the game to be played. The Unreal Tournament series is one example of such.
