Doing this per proposal on Articles for deletion/Data Design Interactive (2nd nomination). This game simply fails WP:GNG for lack of multiple significant coverage in reliable sources. Besides the cited IGN review (I will also note that IGN reviewed almost every game from the publisher in what seems to be a hate review mix, also what can be seen in cited sources in the AfD mentioned above). There is a MobyGames page which includes another 2 reviews: Video Game Critic and Cheat Code Central. However, both are deemed unreliable per WP:VG/RS. Hence the GNG failure.

 * Delete, as per my earlier statement, one source is not sufficient for significant coverage, and it does not appear that this game will ever gain any more sources than that. Thus, it fails various notability guidelines. The WikiProject Video games custom reliable sources search engine has just one hit that is neither GameFAQs, Metacritic, GameRankings, or a database-type overview site (as found on CNET/IGN), and that is the IGN review already included. The previous discussion ended in keep because one user argued that the non-notability of the company had no bearing on the notability of the game ... without addressing why the game, on its own, should be notable.

 * Delete: I have a soft spot for articles about shovelware, but the only source I could find that advances notability is the IGN article. This is the only other mention of it I could find in a notable publication, which is just a passing mention.  TheTechnician27  (Talk page)  22:59, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete. Was hoping my methods of finding sources would help, but as is with everyone else, IGN was the only one I found. - Bryn (talk) (contributions) 04:47, 15 June 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete Fails WP:GNG because one good source is not enough to meet that bar. Newshunter12 (talk) 06:02, 17 June 2019 (UTC)
