  • What is Whatoplay? [it helps u find what to play duh, jk]
    On whatoplay.com, each game has a playscore which is an average based on all reviews on the net such as critic reviews from IGN, gamer reviews from Steam, and reviews directly written on the site. Source: about 1 year ago
  • [Personal Review] The Last Hero of Nostalgaia
    Can I add your review to whatoplay.com ? I'll credit you appropriately, (PS, that no dmg run is insane). Source: about 1 year ago
  • Need games
    Use whatoplay.com you can filter by year. Source: almost 3 years ago
  • Is there a website that sorts games by popularity AND reviews?
    You could also try whatoplay.com - they take at least 3 critic reviews and the average over user ratings from steam, gog.com etc. And then generate an aggregate rating from that. However, niche games will suffer from that (but these could still be great games). Source: about 3 years ago
