What are Multiplayer?

Many free online games, both old and new, use a multiplayer server or a multiplayer game to link players together. There is a list of all the available online games, and participants may connect to an existing game or create a new game for others to engage in. In addition, many games allow users to construct and operate their private servers or game rooms, even though the producers control the main game servers. The vast majority of multiplayer games are played via the Internet. There are also exceptions when a game is played via a dial-up connection or through the use of a LAN (local area network).
