A substantially promotional page, tagged as such since 2017, which has never had any references to independent sources, and for which significant coverage in independent sources has not been found on searching. No evidence of notability. JBW (talk) 14:48, 8 January 2023 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read!

 * Keep I don't agree that this page is written particularly promotionally. It reads as if the person who wrote it has a positive view of the subject but not overtly so. I was able to find a small yet reasonable amount of WP:SIGCOV to list a few. Also, referencing the sources found by Timur9008, the second source tells us that the game had 250 million players, which if true really gives it a good chance at passing WP:GNG.

 * Ah, I do see that someone edited the page since this discussion was posted, removing much promotional content. It certainly appeared more promotional before. WP:HEY  GoldMiner24 Talk 18:43, 8 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete all I find is the game's website, then youtube videos about how to play it. No sources, not at GNG. Oaktree b (talk) 00:48, 9 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep or merge the sources from Timur9008 are probably enough, along with the journal article from GoldMiner24. The article will need to be re-written from these sources, and might fit better in the biographies of the academics who made it. Shooterwalker (talk) 17:06, 9 January 2023 (UTC)
