Best Single-Player Strategy Games Ever Made
Single-player strategies, or as modern gamers call them, offline strategies, are quite a rare genre of games featuring only a single-player mode. Previously, all RTS and TBS games were like this, but now it's a rarity.
These games do not have multiplayer components. At most, there are leaderboards on the developers' official website. Such games rely on a solo campaign.
