What Belongs in the Single Player Games Guild?

What does it take to have your game listed here?

While I'm not terribly picky about what games I list here, since there are relatively few single player games on BYOND to begin with, I do have some simple criteria that a game needs to fill before I'll add it to the guild.

  1. You must be able to play the game completely and totally by yourself with no unwanted interaction with human players, ever.
  2. It absolutely, positively and regardless of anything must be downloadable. If you can't play it by yourself, offline, then its not single player. If the download link doesn't work right, or you need to have a connection for some reason to join or you have to join a server in order to "play by yourself", then your game is not a single player game and it doesn't belong here.
  3. It must be fun. If your game just plain sucks, then I probably won't list it, unless I personally thought it was enjoyable. (Must have wasted at least 15 minutes of my time to qualify!)
  4. WE DO NOT ACCEPT ANIME GAMES. I don't care if you can download the game and hit pbags until your heart's content in single player, these games tend to be all alike and I don't want to deal with them.
So while what I said up there is really just a bunch of wordiness designed to fill up space and make it look like I have more to say than I really do, in the end its pretty simple. If you have a game that you can download, play by yourself and have fun with (which isn't anime), then it belongs here!

Good. BYOND needs more games that are fun without requiring other people.

I'm surprised to say this, but at the rate things are going, SotS II will be able to make this list. Once it's released, that is.
