Guidelines for New Game Listings
- IFDB is for interactive fiction, which is roughly
defined as "adventure" type games that are mostly or entirely text-based.
Games with graphical content are allowed as long as they have a
significant text component.
- Don't list non-IF games, such as entirely graphical
adventures, RPGs, shooters, etc.
- Commercial IF is acceptable, whether classic or new.
You can add a commercial game of your own, but please read
our guidelines about what goes
in your listing.
- Don't add separate listings for different versions of
a game. Any given game should have only one listing that covers
all of its release versions.
