Listing policy

Distractory is an editorial collection. A listing should offer something interesting, playful, creative or delightfully pointless, with a clear reason to visit.

How I choose

I look at the experience itself, whether the description is fair, and whether it belongs in the category. I may decline or pause a site with broken access, misleading redirects or an experience that no longer matches its listing.

Order and feedback

Editorial order is the starting point. Optional YES/NO feedback can adjust ordering once enough votes exist. I do not publish star ratings, and submitting a site does not guarantee inclusion.

Checks and corrections

I run automated checks and review uncertain results. Automated checks run weekly; flagged results still need a human review. Sites awaiting review stay on hold with no outgoing link.

Automated link checks record responses and changes for review. They cannot certify safety, privacy or quality. A failed check is a reason to investigate; it does not automatically remove a listing. Screenshots are local snapshots and may differ from the current site.

Report a broken link or inaccurate listing, or suggest a site.

Games have to earn their place

This is a small selection, not a browser-game catalog. A game needs a distinctive idea, a satisfying interaction or a particular charm that makes it worth sharing. Playing should start quickly, without a required account, download or payment. Short sessions should feel worthwhile. Intrusive ads, pay-to-win mechanics, manipulative purchases and reskinned filler are reasons to pass. Popularity alone is not a reason to include something.
