Clarity
Can a player understand the genre, fantasy, and main action within a few seconds?
Methodology
Game Idea Score Methodology
Game Idea Score is a planning signal, not a guarantee. It helps creators compare clarity, click appeal, retention, fairness, and launch scope.
Click appeal
Does the name and thumbnail direction create a clear emotional reason to open the game page?
Retention potential
Does the idea support first-session rewards, daily goals, weekly updates, and social return loops?
Monetization fairness
Can optional paid benefits exist without misleading players, pressuring children, or breaking balance?
Launch scope
Can a solo or small creator team build and update the first version without over-scoping?
How to use the score
- + Treat 85+ as a promising planning direction, not a guaranteed hit.
- + Compare ideas by dimension, not just by final number.
- + Rework ideas that score well on click appeal but poorly on retention or fairness.
- + Always check originality, platform rules, and audience fit before publishing.
