Does this game require two players?

No, but parts there are a few parts that are easier with two, but still possible with one.

I'm going to say no. I think (whether the game says it or not) you need at least three people. But I would go even further and say to have some real fun with this game, you need at least four people.

Yes, you can play with two players. I have had a number of satisfying games with only two players and two players playing more than one character. I think more players is more fun because it gives the characters more personality, but the game can also be played solo or even single player with multiple characters.

It's really meant for two players. I think there are instructions for three, but it is such a fast game that I think with four players there would be too much crashing of hands as players try to get their cards down. The result might quickly be bent, ripped and otherwise worse for wear cards. However, the idea of the game would certainly support four players and then I think two decks would make it more enjoyable. And last a minute or so longer!

Two people could play, yes. However I would recommend each person play two characters. The game isn't easy, even full parties of 5 can be killed. So two could play and have fun, but the odds will be even more stacked against you! That may make it even more fun...

Yes, this game can be fun for only two players. The dynamics are constantly changing so the level of competition is light and fun.

I definitely played with one other person. However, I am not sure if you could play with up to 4 people offline. I am not sure how the game would handle 4 people playing in the same area going in 4 different directions.

2 or more people could help each other solve the puzzles, but only 1 player is needed. There are no other rules included with the game for "taking turns" though I'm sure one could invent some. Most games are frustrating because you can't play them alone. Not the case with this.

You can play a 2-player game. Technically there are 3 wonders in play because the third is played by both players in an alternating pattern. It works and is still fun.

The game says it is for 2-4 people, however, there are six roles that players can take so it is possible to play with six if you wanted. I have played it with 2,3, and 4 personally and it was always fun but easy. I have never lost on any difficulty, and while it is possible to play all six roles I worry that it would make it too easy.

Definitely not all of the scenarios can be played with one person, but you could easily tailor most of the game to be one player. I play the game with two people most of the time, and it's easy for two. So I don't see why one player couldn't succeed. I think it would be hard to do some of the other campaigns alone though.

Yes you can play it with two. The rules are a little bit different, but still fun.

That is not how the game is designed, but you could have a split personality to play multiple characters. It is not really a co-operative game, as the encounters involve only a single player in a location at a time. It plays fine with 2 players.DaveBoardgames4us

Yes, you need two to four players. You cannot play by yourself. It's like Solitaire only with more players. My granddaughters play it with me - the youngest is seven, but I learned with my cousin and his wife who are my age (70's) There is just enough awareness needed to make it interesting. It was like eating peanuts, we kept playing more games. I had taught my granddaughters how to play Solitaire when they saw me playing it and so it was an easy transition to Kings in the Corner. Enjoy! Beth A.

I do believe there are variant rules for 2 player, though I do not believe they exist within the standard rule books. You can google this and find more information on board game geek. I would say though, that this is very much a social deduction game and the more people the better this game is (though it does take longer). I think the two player variant kind of messes with what makes this game great. Just my opinion though.

I'm not sure how the other player would play without the game. So I'm guessing yes you would need another copy to play with another person.

Both. You can choose to play as one player or with two. My kids have been playing it all morning and love it!
