Note: This guide covers content from Schedule 1, a satirical video game set in a fictional world. All items, recipes, and references are entirely made up and exist only in the game. Please don’t try any of this in real life.
Alright, let’s clear this one up: yes, you can play Schedule 1 by yourself. You don’t need a group. You don’t need a friend. You don’t even need to pretend you have friends. But you do need Steam. And that means—yep—you need to be have access to the internet (but you can, of course, hide your online status while playing).

Solo? Yes. Offline? Kind of.
The game lets you run around solo just fine. You can start your own world, do missions, explore, and build your little empire of crime all alone if that’s your thing. No shame in it. The problem is that Schedule 1 is tied to your Steam account. So even if you’re not playing with anyone else, you still need an internet connection.
No Steam = No Game.
What About Playing Without the Host?
If you’re playing co-op and your buddy is the host, you can’t just hop into their world when they’re not online. The host has to be in the game, or else that world doesn’t exist. It’s like trying to break into a house that isn’t even built yet.
Final Blurb
So yes, Schedule 1 lets you play solo. But offline? Nope. The game still needs internet, still needs Steam, and still likes to check in on you like an overprotective parent. Maybe one day it’ll loosen up. But for now, if your Wi-Fi goes down, so does your criminal empire.
