Fairengames

Fair. Play. Profit.

Rules

• Games should not get into boring repetitiveness.
• If games stop being fun to play, they are not worth playing.
• If a game is a random-powered slot machine for items, say so. Don't let game play be reduced to gambling if it's not the main objective.
• Free players are potential future customers - remind them of paid features but don't annoy them.
• Make games fun for a broad spectrum of daily time availability of players (5 min per day, 1h every few days, a few hours per weekend, or hours per day).
• Quality is not optional, it's part of keeping players engaged.
• Stay in dialog with the more engaged players.
• Play your games yourself.
• Provide a convenient bug/task tracker that is open to players.
• Avoid UI pieces that flash to attract attention when there's no immediate non-paid action for players to take there.
• Don't have a whole collection of different currencies for different stores within one game unless there's exchanges and good game stories behind them.
• Leave room for individuality and exploration.
