Single-player narrative

Single-player narrative refers to a storytelling approach primarily found in video games where one player engages with a storyline alone, experiencing the plot, characters, and world without other players. This format often involves guided experiences, where the player follows a predetermined story, makes choices, and interacts with the environment—shaping their journey through the game. The focus is on individual immersion, allowing for personal connections to the narrative and its characters, often leading to emotional engagement and deeper understanding of the themes presented. Popular examples include games like "The Last of Us" and "The Witcher."
