Is there an algorithm for picking the games which appear on the list of "Hot New Games"? If so, can you explain how it works? I often wonder why certain games remain there week after week. Like "Hard Lines" I think it is called, only has 8 comments and hasn't changed in some time. Also that game "Feed Me Candy"... It has been on this list forever! I'm just curious is all... I'm not trying to complain.
I'm curious about this too. I used to think it is a mixed selection of staff picks and promotional ranking, but not so much anymore. P.S. Hard Lines is a great game.
It's based on the discussion activity on the forums. Sometimes, games can get "stuck" inadvertently. If you see an outlier, email us at [email protected] and we can look at it. Feed Candy looks like it's one of those that is "stuck". We'll remove it. arn
