Frequently asked questions

Short answers about how Gameaton works — no black box, no sponsored picks.

What is Gameaton?

Gameaton helps you decide what to play next — and understand why a game might suit you. Instead of relying only on genre tags or a single review score, each game gets a concise summary plus a motivational profile: the reasons people actually play (or avoid) it.

How does Gameaton recommend games?

Recommendations are based on how games compare on motivational drivers — things like exploration, competition, story, relaxation, and more — not just genre or popularity. When you browse a game page, “What to play next” surfaces titles with a similar motivational feel, including well-known games and smaller hidden gems.

What is a motivational profile?

Each game is scored on 29 motivational dimensions, from −5 to +5. For example, a high Exploration score means discovery is a core reason to play; a low Cooperation score means teamwork isn’t a main draw. Each score comes with a short explanation so you can see why Gameaton thinks that — not just a number.

How is this different from Steam or Metacritic?

Steam and most stores compare games by genre, price, and tags. Review sites tell you whether critics liked a game — not whether you will enjoy it for the same reasons. Gameaton focuses on why you might want to play: the experience and motivations, not a generic “good/bad” verdict.

Where does the information come from?

Gameaton analyzes player reviews (mainly from Steam) with a language model, combined with public knowledge about each game. Summaries, pros/cons, and motivational scores are generated from that material. The catalog is updated regularly as new games are processed.

Are recommendations sponsored or biased?

No. Recommendations are not paid placements and there is no hidden ranking for ads. If you buy a game through a store link on Gameaton, the site may earn a small affiliate commission — that does not change which games are recommended or how they are scored.

How does “What to play next” work?

Each game page groups recommendations by motivational fit: closest overall matches, then categories that feel like this game but lean more (or less) on a specific motivation — competition, exploration, story, and so on. It’s about why you play, not a quality ranking.

Why isn’t my game on Gameaton yet?

The catalog is growing over time, with a focus on quality data and meaningful review coverage. Smaller indie titles and game jam projects are part of the long-term goal, but not every game is indexed yet. You can suggest titles or follow updates on Discord.
