Can you play Twisted: The Game Show single-player?...

I've had this game since I've had my 3DO (it came with it), but have never tried it out. I just watched a video on Youtube, and it seems like it's multiplayer only.

Well, you CAN play against yourself, but yeah its multiplayer only really.

If you are gonna play Twisted solo, I've found it best to just let the computer pick a row or column on the gird. That way it's a surprise like it would actually be if you were playing against a friend. Just let the time run down, and one will be picked at random.

It's not the perfect setup but at least the game is playable solo. It's not like it's sequel Zhadnost, where 2 or more players are absolutely required.

OK, thanks! What about Return Fire-can you play against the computer? I've heard that Return Fire is a must-own for the 3DO.

Yes ...

The one player mode is fun, but if you can experience it with two players it brings the game to a whole different level. The game shines brightest when playing with a friend, really showing that computer AI is no substitute for a fellow gamer. Mainly the fact that in two player mode both are trying to capture the flag, whereas when playing against the computer, they are only defending their own. That really is the main drawback to playing solo … after a while you may really be wishing for another player.

Btw, I copied this from my review. Check it out if you haven't already ...

Return Fire (like Twisted) is indeed a must own. They are two of my favorite 3DO games!
