turn-based play
One player, then another
Turn-based play is a game format where players take alternating turns rather than acting simultaneously.
Chess, checkers, and most board games use turn-based play, as do many video games: The strategy game uses turn-based play, so you can think before each move.
The opposite is real-time play, where all participants act continuously.
