Theoretically it could, but you would have to play 2 characters. I'd advise at least 2, but 4 is the best number.

I see allot of people have answered this, but I am gonna help describe a little more and correct some one else. First off the IOS game for Ipad for Iphone called Elder Sign Omens is actually based on a seperate board game by the same company with similar or the same artwork. Easy mistake. The game Arkham Horror can be played by 1 or more player (1 to 8 if I recall) The mechanics of the game support solo play as the moves and actions of everyone but the characters is randomly chosen by dice rolls or card draws. You could if you wanted to pick a few characters and play the game solo. Either way I find it extremly useful to be able to play alone because you can run through the game a couple times before trying to play with friends. In a game a little on the complex side it helps to have some one who knows what they are doing. Hope that helped.

Yes, you can set this game up and play alone. There are rules for it. It is more fun with more people, but it is possible.

I've been beat to this a hundred times already, it seems.Yes, you can play by yourself. It may or may not be as fun as with friends, it just depends on your imagination. I generally play with at least 3 people, but I have played a round mostly solo and it was actually pretty cool.

Technically yes, rules exist to play with just one character. As far as I can tell it's basically impossible to win if you do that. However, you can modify the game by playing multiple characters yourself which can be interesting though time consuming. The game is definitely best with more people though.

It can be played solo fairly easily, but I'd recommend playing as 2 different characters most of the time. It's sweet spot would be with 3-5 players depending on the group.

Yes, but the mechanics of the game rely on players assisting each other. However, there is an Arkham Horror game available for iOs that allows for one player and is essentially a simplified version of Arkham Horror. I believe the same game is available in board game format. It's called Elder Sign Omens.

Yes. Two players is easy. Four is the most difficult. But you can play with three.

It is an online game, you can play WITH more than 2 people at the same time. As far as yourself controlling 2 characters at the same time, I don't believe so.

Yes, two people can play. You can even have two persons play two characters each to get four on the board.

Yes you can, but its not nearly as much fun - and I believe there is one aspect of the game that you can't have if you only have two players. Its still cute though with two players - it really is a lot like normal Clue.

I would say Yes in that there are people that will play with only two players, but using two characters each, then once the traitor is revealed one person takes over the three non-traitors and the traitor only controls the traitor. Works decently enough.

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...

No. The game is based on a group of people answering a question and then one person trying to match the answers to the correct person. With only two people the game wouldn't be playable. Id suggest at least a group of 4.

Are you talking two players on top of a GM or one player and one GM? The former can be done with a little scaling, but the latter is ill-advised. Keep in mind this is an introductory game based around an adventure and pre-made characters and a pre-made adventure. I've run it for two people (with a couple challenges reduced), but I wouldn't recommend it with just one.

The game is set for 2-4 players with slightly different start up for 3 and over. It can be played solo. There are only 4 ship models with the game, with more ship models you could add more players but probably would not want to add more than 1 or 2.

It`s for 1 player only but you can have more kids play by taking turns and count their time.

This is an actual game; not an online one. As with the larger edition, you need 2-4 players.

You definitely can! You're just racing your own brain instead of others. You can play one-player versions on their website: http://www.setgame.com/set/daily_puzzle or through the NY Times website as well.

The game is 1-8 players so you could play this game by yourself. Never tried it by myself though.

Yes. This is a single player game, where you can control the individuals in your party.

No it is not an online game and only single player but very very addicting, if you wanted to play with a friend I suggest each create a character and when the player dies its the other persons turn lol my version of multi player I guess

It is very hard when you play solo, but it is fun and playable. If you tweak the rules a little bit it could probably be just right for your tastes.
