Single-player or Multiplayer for a story game?

Hello!
I am currently trying to make a story game. However, I would like to get your opinion on a certain matter. This story would have multiple missions that you could do. Below is the backstory of what the first mission would be like.

Backstory of Mission One: On a space station deep in space, something had gone terribly wrong. The station had gone dark, and it’s been reported by individuals that there has been many fatalities. Now, the survivors have locked themselves into the evacuation shelter. However, with no electricity, the shelter is unable to function perfectly. This means that the survivors cannot escape and evacuate to the nearest planet. To fix this, the survivors send out a engineer that is tasked to fix the electricity. You will play as the Engineer as you uncover the mysteries of what happened.

I am not sure if I should make my story single-player, or multiplayer. If it was single player that would mean that only one engineer was tasked to fix the electricity. Multiplayer would be multiple people, maybe like five, tasked with fixing the electricity.

Also, the next missions will be related to each other. They will necessarily not be just single-player or multiplayer. It would depend on the backstory.

Poll:

  • Multiplayer. Multiple players tasked with completing Mission One.
  • Single-player. You are the only player tasked with completing Mission One.
  • Other option. Comment below.
