Can one play alone? Or do you need always two players so the cord won't wrap around the spiral and stop the game?

You can play alone. Just practice your backhand as well so the cord doesn't wrap all the way around.

My grandson insists someone has to play with him, but I don't think that is necessary - others have played alone - you just need to practice your forehands and backhands so it doesn't wrap too far down the pole.

My mom and I love to play the game just us. In fact I have never played it with more than two people. It is much harder solo though.

The game is playable with two people, but it is much more fun with four or more. I wouldn't get it if you would only be able to play with two people.

I think you have to have at least two players. I know they will have NPCs to fill in for the rest.....the game is most certainly meant for kids...I play it with my kid sometimes just as a bonding thing....my kid just checked and she says you must have 2 players

You can play this game with a minimum of 2 players; the game recommends between 2-4, but I've played it with many more than that. It's also fun to play in teams of two if you have a lot of players.

It is fine with 2, but better 3 or more. I've played it with my 27 yo brother-in-law and had fun. Of course the more the merrier, but it works as a two player and is still enjoyable.

My son who is 9 said you can practice with just one person. You will need two people to play the game. He said its more fun with 2 players.

Sure you can. It actually depends on the game you want to play that allows 2 players. This particular item comes with only one controller, so you will have to buy the wiimote and nunchuck (if needed). That was my case.

You can play it two person. The screen does split when you are not in the same location, just like it does on the XBox. ENJOY!!!

I am not 100% sure. I bought this for my son but I think most of the Lego games is 1 or 2 players all the time. It's just up to you pretty much but if I had to guess; I would say yes. You can play 2 players simultaneous or just 1 player. I believe its totally up to the player(s). Have a great day.

I have tried playing with two before but this game is definitely NOT built for only two. Even with three the real fun of the game is somewhat subdued. I believe four is optimal, because while you can play with more, the game starts to really lag with higher numbers of players, especially if there are any new players in your group.But as for the original question: No, it is not nearly as fun with two people. Half the fun of the game is choosing who to help and who to hurt and when is the best time to do it. With only two people it takes away much of the "Munchiness" that the game is really built around.

no. I see my kid plays by himself. The system wouldn't let split screen mode to turn of so his brother cannot sign in to play with him. I just see one big screen.

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

You can definitely do solo. I have done quite a few that way as well as playing 2 or 4 players. Four is much more challenging.

This has a way to be played alone, but in all homesty, it's just great with friends. If you don't have someone to play, i suggest you do not buy this product.

Two people can play together but you'll need to have two wires to play and it local play not over the internet

You can play one player with it, but to play four players you need controllers. You can still use the gamepad as a fifth player but cannot use any characters in game.
