Shadowverse
''Shadowverse'' is a digital collectible card game developed and published by Cygames. It was released free-to-play for iOS and Android devices in June 2016. macOS and Windows versions were released in October 2016. ''Shadowverse'' employs an anime art style with some illustrations reused from the developer's previous title, ''Rage of Bahamut'', an earlier digital collectible card game released in 2012. The game has been compared favorably with ''Hearthstone'' (2014), a difference being that Cygames sought to minimize the impact of randomness on match outcomes. Another difference is ''Shadowverse''s "Evolve" game mechanic which allows players to grant played cards bonus stats and effects at the cost of an evolution point. An anime television series adaptation by Zexcs aired from April 2020 to March 2021. A second anime series titled ''Shadowverse Flame'' from April 2022 to September 2024.

Single-player
A single-player video game is a video game where input from only one player is expected throughout the gameplay. Video games in general can feature several game modes, including single-player modes designed to be played by a single player in addition to multi-player modes. Most modern console games, PC games and arcade games are designed so that they can be played by a single player; although many of these games have modes that allow two or more players to play (not necessarily simultaneously), very few actually require more than one player for the game to be played. The '' Unreal Tournament'' series is one example of such. History The earliest video games, such as ''Tennis for Two'' (1958), '' Spacewar!'' (1962), and '' Pong'' (1972), were symmetrical games designed to be played by two players. Single-player games gained popularity only after this, with early titles such as '' Speed Race'' (1974) and ''Space Invaders'' (1978). The reason for this, according to Raph Koster, ...
