Can I play this only as single player or do I need co-op? I only play single player games. Thank you

It has single player, but from what I can see it isn't favorable to play single player as it IS meant to be played with Co-op

Any player feedback?
I would be interested to know, as well, if the game is solo doable.

its a couch coop game at the core, and even declared as such in the steamshop. so why ppl even need to ask for single player? its like asking if you can play soccer alone.

the game has a SIngle Player with build in options to make it easyer to play alone, but its far from optimal for Single Player, even with "only" 2 ppl it is easyer than the single player with its boosts.

Because I want to play single player mode.

As mentioned, yes, Wild Woods does have a single player mode :)

Yes, it's doable alone. With the last update we made some changes to balance the game especially when playing alone.


As for the original design, it was created as a multiplayer game. Especially with the new added player roles, the multiplayer character comes to shine :)
However, we do have people in the community who enjoy playing solo. In the end, it's your preference :)

Could you maybe elobarete further? Did you play online or local multiplayer? What exactly were the iffy results?

its a shame we can't have a single player with AI players filling out the rest of the team, I thought that's what it was but its not :( so refunding it :( its a shame because it looks fun but its not fun without the AI players helping

I feel the same in this regard. It looks like great fun, but if I'm missing out on aspects of the game by being a solo player... Well... I'll have to pass, unfortunately.

I haven't gotten the game yet, but I too am very interested in single player. Will there be a bots option/system, kind of like bots in counter strike or left for dead in single player?

[GnomeSlayer]

Thank you - I hope to see more content as well.

Solo is doable, in fact, it gives you two spaces to pick up items instead of one in multiplayer. So you're not at a huge disadvantage, though it is easier in a four player game, as you have four damage dealers and four people to pick up items in different places on the screen.

Bumping this old post. I just finished my achievements, everything in solo run from easy to hard mode. Skills matter but prepare to suffer

[Stardustfire]

AI helpers woud be hard to programm because of teh diversity each player is faced with, the role system is shallow at best, so its ignoreable to a high degree (still try to get any insight how the healstaff is useable at other players, thnx to subzero explanation) , so that woud be zero concern for an bot.
problem start with the basics of fight/destroy to gather/gather/use boni installments along the road/operate the waggons firebowl/repair the waggons parts/healing at the waggon. and i let out the boss fights here for a reason, because there a bot woud be total useless and autodeath or total overpowered godlike depending how there programming goes (know nothing about the boss patterns and die, or know everything and have auto avoidance to the boss moves programmed in)

Does this game have matchmaking and reconnect?

There is the option to find random players (in your region) via Quick Play (menu > online > quick play). Unfortunately, at the moment you can't rejoin a game in progress if you get disconnected. But we're working hard on HotJoin. We hope to bring this feature to you very soon!
