I have gone around and around on this page. I've always wanted to do some sort of games website, and one of my first real effort was "evenings with (old) games", which was about playing classic games. In 2015 this became Carbon-izer Games, which was supposed to cover these games in more detail, based after a few websites I liked at the time. After a while I found writing "full" reviews was too cumbersome and then discontinued in favor of a "games I've played" list.
After a few years I came back to the list, inspired once more, and updated all of the pages with new reviews, and merged back in many of the games I had played in this "exile" period, along with some new ones, growing the list form around 50 or 60 to 130. I had been inspired by (among others) Ross' Big Game List would be a good format, because he posts games he's interested in, and has some good criteria. His video (linked to it on his main page) at about six minutes in describes some of these--no asset flips, no microtransactions, single player experiences, no casual games, no "games as a service", and are "real game experiences" (whatever that means).
I had come up with a few "absolutes" and "necessities" in deciding if a game was covered or not, but eventually the lines started to blur as some of the "Games I've Played List" didn't even meet the criteria and would've had to be grandfathered in (specifically, Urban Yeti!, The Fish Files, The Colonel's Bequest, and Indiana Jones & The Last Crusade). I had given reviews for all of the 130 I added but the result was often lopsided, with "No Rating" and "Rejected" dominating much of the list, and the ever-growing list was getting more and more unwieldy. The current game list is more of a database, a database of games that I may not even own or even really like the idea of, but a database none the list, with maybe one or two lines on each on some entries. It would combine some of the simplicity of the "Games I've Played" list with other ideas I've had over the years.
In any case, there's still a general ban on Flash and purely online games, but I've expanded it because I could and I wanted to. Some of the games I reviewed before this change still hold their ratings but No Rating won't be used (redundant).
In this list, some games will have full Exor's Dungeon guides and other goodies, some won't, but they'll be marked.
