That is why we would like to achieve the same level of teamwork here, in order to always keep the site fresh & updated! Here, we will list games that have been aproved by admins as acceptable for publishing, with brief descriptions and links to the page where you can obtain them.
The rules for applying for a review are same as on Abandonia. Just send a PM to Tom Henrik, Taikara, A.J. Raffles, BeefontheBone, DeathDude, Flop, Juni Ori, and they will edit this topic so that we always know who is working on which game(s).
Before you apply for a review, be sure to carefully read the WHOLE content submission guidelines!
Also please note that once content has been submitted to the site, it becomes the property of Abandonia Reloaded!
In particular, when submitting screenshots please ensure that you include shots of the game's title screen and the company's logo where possible.
Also, please note that unlike our sistersite Abandonia, we don't use HTML tags in our reviews, so please don't use them when writing a review.
The better you follow the submission guidelines, the easier it is for the crew to prep and upload your work, and the sooner you'll see it on the site.
**Important Note**
Once you claim a game, you have two weeks to review and submit it. After that, it's up for grabs again. We may not take down your name until we either receive a review for the game from you or someone else, or until it is claimed by someone else, but we will not reserve games that are two weeks past their claimed date.
Games reserved by crew or admins are an exception to that rule, as a reward for working on the site. If you would like to review a game that has an admin's or crew member's name next to it, please contact that member directly to request the review.
