custom game
Player-made gaming experience
A custom game is a match in a video game where players can modify settings beyond standard play—adjusting rules, maps, player counts, or other parameters.
Custom games allow experimentation, practice, or casual play outside ranked competition: We set up a custom game to test new strategies.
In some games, custom games have spawned entirely new genres.
