How do you like to play games? Do you only enjoy it when other people are involved, or do you prefer to go it alone? Are you competitive or casual? Have you ever asked yourself, “What kind of gamer am I really?” Well, wonder no more! Whether you enjoy board, video, card, or escape games, read on to explore what type of gamer you are!
The Competitive Cobra
When you play games, you’re always playing to win! It doesn’t matter whether money or pride is on the line. Victory is always your aim. While it’s okay to lose sometimes, that’s always disappointing. Even single player games can allow you to compete with yourself by chasing difficult achievements or planning out self-set challenges. You know that any game, including cooperative ones, can have an element of competition if you know where to look. And you always know where to look.
The Habitual Hare
You loves games. But, you also tend to play the same things over and over again. Your friends know your recommendations by heart, and you are always drawn back to one comfort game over anything else. When a remaster or special edition of a classic is announced, it makes your day. It can be fun to try something new, but you always prefer the tried-and-true, the games that you know for sure that you like. There’s nothing wrong with that!
The Lone Wolf
Gaming can be a social experience, but you often prefer to play alone. Whether than means finding a single-player video game to explore or just pulling out a deck of cards for some solitaire, some of the best times you’ve had with games are by yourself. This doesn’t necessarily mean that you don’t play with other people, but you find peace solving puzzles, exploring worlds, and being drawn into a story on your own. For you, the overall experience often matters more than whether you win or lose.
The Social Butterfly
Gaming for you is all about the friends that you make along the way! You aren’t too picky about the types of games you play as long as you get to do it with other people. Video games, board games, card games, role-playing games; anything and everything is on the table for you. You tend to be drawn more towards party games, but any kind of multiplayer experience is worth checking out. Hosting a game night, whether virtual or in person, is one of your favorite ways to indulge in your love of gaming. Everything is better with friends!
The Adventurous Alligator
Life is an adventure and so is gaming! You like to try something new any time you play a game. You might be partial to a particular style, whether that’s video or board games or something else, but playing the same exact thing over and over again can get tiring. You are always open to new experiences and you love getting recommendations from friends, the weirder and more unique the better! Events like the Steam Summer Sale are always something you look forward to, so you can add more variety to your collection. After all, variety is the spice of life!
