'''Local co-op''', also known as '''same-machine multiplayer''', is a feature of many games which allows multiple players to play together cooperatively on a single computer. Note that, for the purposes of this wiki, this page covers only ''cooperative'' games, and competitive or team-based games that feature local multiplayer are covered in [[Glossary:Local play]].
 
 
 
Local co-op can exist in multiple forms, including split-screen, single-screen, and hotseat-based gameplay, although the latter of the three is mostly used in competitive settings.
