You may ask "Well what the hell is it?" and I'll explain with an example of my last game session I am playing Terraria My Boyfriend is playing a Stardew randomizer My Partner is playing Legend of Zelda Link to the Past randomizer My roommate is playing Legend of Zelda OoT randomizer I beat a boss in Terraria which gives me an achivement. Instead of that boss being checked off in my world, it gives my BF an upgraded farming level in Stardew. Roommate opens a chest and sends me Hermes Boots. I use those to get the achievement for crafting Terraspark boots and now Partner has the Master Sword. It goes on like this, where you might get something from your own world but you can also end up giving your friend in an entirely different game items as well. Truly the best kind of Singleplayer Together AND IT CAN BE ASYNCHRONUS, meaning you don't have to play at the same time and instead you can do a long running game where "Oh hey I'm at work and Roomate got me Post-Goblin Army so now I can craft better gear once I find the NPC, nice!" And also for my systems/plurals out there? You can very easily play with your headmates by each of you running your own game in an archipelago session.
