Puzzle
Look for short activities, readable instructions and whether levels can be opened without a connection.
Racing and action
Inspect the controls and practise them before travel. Confirm the specific single-player mode instead of assuming online events are also available offline.
Board and strategy
Check whether the chosen mode uses computer opponents, pass-and-play or another local arrangement. These modes have different requirements.
Sports and simulation
Read the mode descriptions and check whether career data or resources require a server connection.
Make a shortlist
Write the category, intended session length and one requirement. Use the offline checklist before relying on any selected title.
