Frequently Asked Questions
Are all games in your directory genuinely free-to-play?
Yes. We strictly vet every title before adding it to our directory to ensure that the core gameplay experience is 100% free. While optional in-game microtransactions may exist, no purchase is required to play.
Do I need to download or install any software?
The vast majority of our featured titles are HTML5 browser games, meaning they run directly in Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge without any downloads. A few select MMOs may offer an optional lightweight client for enhanced performance.
How does your editorial team select which games to feature?
Our analysts use a rigorous rubric evaluating graphics quality, monetization fairness, server stability, and community engagement. Only games that score above an 80% threshold make it into the Canada Play Guide.
Are these games safe for children?
While we check for malicious software, many of these games feature unrated online chat systems. We highly advise parents to review the games and utilize parental controls if younger children will be playing.
How often is the directory updated?
Our editorial team refreshes the database every Tuesday and Friday, removing obsolete games and adding newly reviewed titles.
Do you accept paid placements for game reviews?
No. Our editorial integrity is our highest priority. We do not accept payment from publishers in exchange for higher review scores or premium directory placements.
What are the minimum system requirements?
Because they run in standard web browsers, any computer or laptop manufactured in the last 7 years with a stable internet connection will run these games smoothly.
