There's a plethora of great opinion pieces being posted on the #gaming category every day, so let's mix things up a little and get a review contest going!

Basic Contest Rules

  1. Every review must contain at least 700 words. Posts closer to 1000 words will be favoured.
  2. Perfect grammar and punctuation are essential; big, smart words are not necessary.
  3. You may review any videogame in history.
  4. You must have under 150 followers to compete; this is a contest for smaller writers.
  5. You have until this post receives its payout to submit your review.
  6. All submissions must be linked in this article's comment section.
  7. Every submission must be published after this post announcing the contest.

That's it. In addition to the 30 SBD total prize pool, this article's earnings will also be added as a bonus, depending on the end total. For example: this post earns $100, I receive the 50% of Steem Power and the curators get their share. The rest of the Steem Dollars will be added to the prize pool and shared.

Ladder Earnings (Excluding Potential Bonus)

  1. First place = 15 SBD.
  2. Second place = 10 SBD.
  3. Third pace = 5 SBD.

Basic Review Formatting Help

  1. A little information regarding the developer/publisher's history.
  2. What is the game about? Genre? Art direction?
  3. Narrative description: what happens in the game? What do you like/dislike?
  4. Which features stood out to you? What are some you'd like to see?
  5. Conlcusion: did you like it? Would you recommend the game?

Awesome! First submission so far, so I'd say your odds of gaining that first place are 100%... For now. :^)

I've sent it to a few friends to try and get them to enter :') Not sure why nobody else has entered! Really good idea.

Here is one of my most favourite reviews that I have done. https://steemit.com/gaming/@nesbitt/video-game-review-playerunknown-s-battlegrounds

I like this Idea to help promote smaller channels, I have resteemed to try to get more people to enter! c:

Thanks!

And yeah, trying to give us smaller people a little motivation to create great content is the way forward.

I'm not going to allow posts published before this contest to take part, but your post is definitely undervalued; I'm going to send you 3 SBD. :)

Aww, that's great to hear! c: If I wrote a new one would that be accepted? Thank you so much, really nice of you!

Yup. Any review that meets the rules stated will be accepted. :)

Perfect, I will start on it later on! c:

Feel free to take your time. You have a week. :)

It's nice to see community members feeding back into the community and valuing the new/underrated authors.
