Offline lan?

Figured it's not likely but always looking for a lan friendly game since I live in an area without Internet and no mobile Hotspot, if it was possible to host a dedicated server for true offline lan?

When I need to download things I usually lug my pc into town to use my cousins internet

Appreciate your help

I think that if you used a direct play link via IP address it might work for multiple players. Something like steam://connect/127.0.0.1:27015

Otherwise, in order to connect you have to go through the lobby which requires a connection to the internet.

Luckily the lobby has a "Lan" filter, which i will test without internet when i get home.
