So I looked through a few applications, and I have to say I saw one that was copied off another member from Sploder Forums. Also, you guys don't seem to see what you are doing wrong, so I thought I would set this up for you guys
- Make an Introduction. Appeal to the reader and make it sound exciting.
- Make a 'body'. Outline the good and bad aspects of the game.
- Make a Conclusion. Conclude all of your information so you can tidy things up, and this is a great way of getting last minute points in that couldn't fit in before.
- Make some ratings. Of different aspects of the game. I.e. Originality 3/5. And if you do that total it up so it gives a 'final' score.
- Don't be repetitive. If you are too repetitive it WILL get denied as it does not have anything else in there, you are just using the same old meaning every time.
- Review a game people like. If it's a game no one except you like and if you give it good ratings, that wouldn't be a very experienced or good reviewing skills. And also if you don't like a game, don't review it. The point of reviewing is to promote and name benefits and/or qualities on the game. Also giving tips on how to improve the game.
- Never give a game 100%. No matter what, no game is EVER perfect. This will be an indication to Recruiters on how well you understand the concept of reviewing/rating.
- If you get denied, don't lose hope. It might be a one timer and you did not successfully get through to a Recruiter/Reader. Keep trying and improve on what the Recruiters said you could improve on.
- Don't just review Featured games. Yes, they are good, but people like other games, not just Featured ones.
- NEVER EVER copy a Review - This is a serious offence of the Reviewers privacy. Think, 'Would I like others to take credit for my awesome review?'
This will we updated as I think of other things.
