Editorial Policy

1. What This Site Is

Noobie.games is a curated browser-games site with original editorial coverage of every game we feature. The games themselves are licensed through the GameDistribution publisher program (see our Intellectual Property Policy); the writing about them — descriptions, strategy tips, opinions — is produced in-house by the Noobie.games editorial team.

We exist because the open browser-games catalog is enormous, mostly unreviewed, and very inconsistent in quality. A site that simply lists every available embed is not useful. A site that picks the ones worth your time and explains why is.

2. How We Curate

Not every available game gets a page on Noobie.games. We curate deliberately. A game makes it onto the site only after a member of our team has played it, decided it's worth recommending, and written original editorial content for it. If we can't find anything genuinely useful to say about a game beyond its feed metadata, we don't publish it.

The signals we weigh when picking what to cover:

• Gameplay quality — does it actually feel good to play, on the kinds of devices our readers use?
• Originality — is it a meaningful entry in its genre, or a low-effort copy of something we already cover?
• Audience fit — is there a clear group of players who would enjoy this?
• Honesty of presentation — does the game deliver what its title and thumbnail promise?
• Coverage balance — do we already have several strong picks in this genre, or is this a useful addition?

A game can be popular and still not make the cut if it's misleading, pay-walled in a way the feed doesn't disclose, or aggressively monetized to the point of being unpleasant to play.

3. What We Write

Each curated game page contains four kinds of original content:

• An editorial description (150–300 words) — what the game is, where it sits in its genre, who it's for, and what makes it interesting or distinctive. Written in our own voice, not paraphrased from the feed copy.
• Tips & strategy — concrete, useful advice. Not generic filler like "press the buttons faster." The kinds of things we wish someone had told us before our first run.
• Our take — a short, honest opinion section. Pros, cons, comparisons to similar games, and who it's likely to disappoint.
• Category overviews on each genre page, explaining the genre's appeal and what we look for in it.

We also publish longer-form articles under /blog — guides, genre roundups, and broader thoughts about the browser-games space.

4. How We Write It

A few standards we hold ourselves to:

• No copy-paste from feed descriptions. The text supplied by the publisher is reference material only. Our editorial copy is written from scratch after we've played the game.
• No generic AI filler. If a paragraph could apply to half the games on the site, it doesn't belong. We aim for the specific over the generic, every time.
• Tips have to be tip-worthy. "Press jump to jump" is not a tip. We write what someone actually needs to know to play well.
• Opinions are allowed to be opinions. If a game has weak parts, we say so. If we love something, we say that too. We don't pretend neutrality we don't have.
• No fake reviews or scores. We don't fabricate user reviews, star ratings, or playtime numbers.

5. What We Do Not Do

A short list of things this site is intentionally not:

• We do not republish entire game catalogs without curation. If we don't have something to say about a game, it doesn't get a page.
• We do not accept payment in exchange for favorable coverage. We do not run paid placements styled to look like editorial.
• We do not write fake user reviews, fake testimonials, or fabricated playtime data.
• We do not modify the games themselves. Embeds are served as the publisher provides them, with attribution displayed.

6. Updates & Corrections

Games change. A title we recommended a year ago may have had a monetization rework, a control change, or a new bug introduced. We revisit our editorial coverage periodically and update it where we notice something has shifted.

If you spot a factual error — wrong control scheme, broken embed, outdated tip — please tell us using the contact details below. We correct factual errors promptly and note significant changes at the top of the affected page.
