2021 saw continued growth in the number of people interested in solo games, and luckily there were plenty of great solo titles out there for gamers to try. These aren\u2019t multiplayer games that can<\/i> be played with just one person; these are games specifically dedicated to the single-player experience. Without other players to drive the game forward or provide interaction, a good solo game needs to provide enough interesting decisions to keep the player engaged for the entirety of a session. It also needs to reward multiple plays, either through a high difficulty level or by having a lot of content to explore (or both!).<\/p>\n

The Diamond Climber Awards are in their 4th year, and with each year we’ve grown and changed, sometimes in uncomfortable ways. Because our team has such a wide and diverse taste in games it was tough this year to come to a consensus on a single game<\/em> that really fit the category. So this year we’re presenting multiple<\/strong> picks for Best Solo Game, written in the words of each author who loved this category. We feel this will better represent the breadth and diversity of the games on the market, and offer a more genuine selection for our readers.<\/p>\n

So without further ado here are our picks for Best Solo Game from 2021.<\/p>\n
