Article fails WP:GNG and WP:Notability (games) Atsme ✍🏻📧 12:43, 31 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete First glance this looks ok, but even the Ukrainian news articles are WP:ROUTINE coverage. Lack of general reviews are pretty damning for notability here.  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 12:49, 31 October 2018 (UTC)

 * Atsme Can I ask you to clarify which particular points are violated in WP:GNG and WP:Notability (games)?  Ped4enko (talk) 18:03, 31 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Lee Vilenski Do you think all the links are WP:ROUTINE?  Ped4enko (talk)  —Preceding undated comment added 16:14, 31 October 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete. Not a single hit in the WP:VG/RS custom Google search engine. Fails notability. soetermans . ↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK 10:29, 1 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete as essentially failing WP:LASTING. As noted above, the sources are routine news coverage that got highlighted due to the topic's nature. But the game itself has not received any actual in-depth coverage -- all the sources repeat the same general audience overview. While we don't necessarily want just video game sources and could consider the available ones, the problem is that one could replace the actual game with any of the million others and the articles would still say the same thing. — HELL KNOWZ   ▎TALK 14:52, 1 November 2018 (UTC)

 * , have any special print/digital Ukrainian sources? (not watching, please  as needed)   czar  10:47, 8 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Published sources in the article refer to such criteria rules WP:Notability (games): Published in reliable sources like Ain.ua (There are over a thousand links to publications from this source on Wikipedia.), Independent source like euromaidanpress.com. But I did not find any mention of awards or critical and detailed reviews about the game. There are some comments about the gameplay, but they are not very detailed.  Ped4enko (talk) 18:50, 8 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Where did you get the thousand figure? I see 38 links to Ain.ua in only a dozen or so article. — HELL KNOWZ   ▎TALK 17:55, 8 November 2018 (UTC)

 * will you please eliminate the sources like the 1st which is a school paper - it appears there are a few others - also the short passing mentions, and will you also indicate which ones are local papers? We need to narrow it down to the RS only to establish notability.  Thank you. There is also the question about the article creator being connected. They have not yet responded to my question.

 * Agreed, WP:THREE would be helpful here. SportingFlyer  talk  10:33, 10 November 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete Based on the machine translations, even one good reference would be more than what seems to be available; judging from the obvious content, there's no reason anyone would wan to actually do a review of this trivial game. Clealy an undeclared COIedsitor, which is by itself reason to delete.  DGG ( talk ) 05:17, 11 November 2018 (UTC)
