Questions & answers
How do you choose which games to cover?
We pull from reader suggestions, store charts, and whatever catches our eye while browsing. The only real requirement is that the game has something worth talking about, regardless of its genre or popularity.
Do developers pay you for reviews?
No. Nobody pays to appear in our catalog or to receive a higher rating. We fund the site ourselves so we can stay honest, even when that means saying a game isn't worth your time.
Can I suggest a game for you to play?
Absolutely, and we read every suggestion. Just email us the name of the game and a line about why you like it. We can't promise to cover everything, but good tips genuinely shape what we play next.
Is everything you write based on real play?
Yes. Every piece comes from hands-on time with the game. For example, our Casinacho Games guide was written after we spent several sessions working through its mini-challenges ourselves before publishing a word.
