About Dusty Ramparts

Dusty Ramparts is a small review site for online worlds that run in a web page. Three of us write it. War games measured side by side: that is the whole editorial line, and the five worlds each season are chosen to fit it.

What qualifies

• Runs in a normal web browser with nothing to install.
• Free to register and to play properly. A shop is fine; a paywall on the core loop is not.
• No real-money gambling of any kind. We do not cover casino, slot or betting products and never will.
• Live for at least a year with an active English-speaking community.

How we are paid

Buttons that open a game are affiliate links. Sign up through one and the publisher may pay us a small commission, which covers hosting. Publishers cannot buy a place, do not see a verdict before publication and have never been offered a higher one for anything. A world that falls below 7.0 on re-test is dropped whatever the link earns.

Seasons

Four a year. Worlds carry over while they hold their verdict; old seasons are not kept online because a stale review is worse than none.
