Two players, one screen

The 1–2 players marker appears only when a publisher states that a two-player mode exists. It is a fact from the record, not a recommendation — some two-player modes are better than others, and the marker cannot tell you which.

What the marker does promise is that you will not need a second device, a second account or an internet lobby. One screen, two people, the way games worked at kitchen tables.

On a phone, turn the device sideways before you start. Wide screens split into two territories more easily than tall ones, and most two-player modes are drawn for a landscape view.

The Reference sheet counts these entries so you can see at a glance how many exist. It is a small number, and that is fine: a shared-screen game is a special occasion, not a default.

If the marker is absent, it means the publisher says nothing either way. Treat that as single player and be pleasantly surprised if a second player turns out to work.

Dua pemain, satu skrin

Penanda 1–2 pemain hanya muncul bila penerbit menyatakan mod dua pemain wujud. Ia fakta daripada rekod, bukan cadangan — ada mod dua pemain yang lebih baik daripada yang lain, dan penanda tidak boleh memberitahu yang mana.

Apa yang penanda itu janjikan ialah anda tidak perlukan peranti kedua, akaun kedua atau lobby internet. Satu skrin, dua orang, seperti permainan di meja dapur.

Di telefon, pusingkan peranti mengiring sebelum mula. Skrin lebar lebih mudah terbahagi kepada dua wilayah berbanding yang tinggi, dan kebanyakan mod dua pemain dilukis untuk pandangan landskap.

Helaian Rujukan mengira entri ini supaya anda boleh lihat sepintas berapa bilangannya. Bilangannya kecil, dan itu tidak mengapa: permainan skrin kongsi itu acara istimewa, bukan kebiasaan.

Jika penanda tiada, maksudnya penerbit tidak menyatakan apa-apa. Anggap ia pemain tunggal dan gembiralah jika rupa-rupanya pemain kedua berfungsi.
