Does the Evil Dead game have single player?
Does the Evil Dead game have a story mode or campaign?
Does the Evil Dead game have single player mode or a story campaign? Sort of - there's a series of short missions that provide new characters for those who complete them, and can only be played on your own. A shame - a lot of these missions are very difficult and players might wish they had help, but considering you can add some powerful new survivors to the roster, it's worth doing. We'll answer all your questions about the Evil Dead game single player mode and campaign below.
Can you play the Evil Dead game in single player?
Yes, you can play Evil Dead single player - though it's not the most extensive feature in the world. To summarise, those who want to play the main game on their own can select an option where other players are substituted by AI bots, allowing them to deal with Deadites without the panic of other people getting in the way.
Does the Evil Dead game have a story campaign?
The Evil Dead does have a campaign - sort of. It's a series of seven missions that represent key moments from the franchise or fun asides that we haven't seen, such as Ash dealing with Linda's head in Evil Dead 2, or trying to get his car back after thieves steal it with the Necronomicon in the trunk during the era of Ash vs. Evil Dead. It's also strictly single-single player, with no chance to play it with friends in co-op or competitive fashion (at least at time of writing).
These missions are very basic experiences - more like challenges, with no cutscenes and few unique mechanics - but are still fun and are definitely worth doing, as they unlock special extras and even new characters to play as (four at time of writing). In fact, this is how to unlock Amanda Fisher in the Evil Dead game, one of the best pistol users across the board and a powerful ranged fighter.

He is a firm believer that the vast majority of games would be improved by adding a grappling hook, and if they already have one, they should probably add another just to be safe.
