Casino Tycoon (video game)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable video game. GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 23:42, 8 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Not much reliable secondary coverage that I could find. An IGN review and that's about it. Adam9007 (talk) 01:10, 9 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep. It's got an entry at Metacritic with a few reviews, including  at IGN (mentioned above) and an offline review from Computer Gaming World.  Metacritic also links to  from Adrenaline Vault, but this seems to be a review for Casino Mogul, a different game from the same developer.  Besides that, in a WP:VG/RS Google custom search, I see two non-English reviews:  from fr:Jeuxvideo.com and  from nl:Gamer.nl.  Since the CGW review snippet doesn't mention Casino Tycoon and Metacritic apparently linked the wrong game with the Adrenaline Vault review, I did a Google Books search to see if Google digitized the CGW issue.  Fortunately, it did come up in a search, but it's only a snippet view: .  I think that's probably enough to establish notability. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 02:37, 9 July 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep. I concur with NinjaRobotPirate based on the new sources offered. The article is in great need of expansion, though. This should have been created as a draft until it was ready for mainspace... -Thibbs (talk) 17:21, 14 July 2016 (UTC)

 * Redirect to developer Monte Cristo Multimedia. Four middling reviews with no depth on Development or any other sources at all isn't enough to warrant a separate article on the subject. Everything that needs to be said can be done within a section of its parent, which needs expansion. czar  00:14, 21 July 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep: Why must we merge or redirect everything these days? Four full reviews on a game is more than enough for it to have its own article, considering two is the absolute minimum amount needed, per WP:GNG. Just because it can just have a section in its parent article, doesn't mean it should. If there were next to no coverage available, I could understand, but that's not the case here.

 * Keep. Reviews shown above by NinjaRobotPirate establish notability. Merging this game and all others of similar notability to Monte Cristo Multimedia would made that page too big anyway. Patar knight - chat/contributions 15:57, 23 July 2016 (UTC)
