Comment on YSK about Darkpatterns.games, a website that rates mobile games on their "Dark patterns"
PixelProf@lemmy.ca 2 weeks agoYeah, that’s definitely the way to see it, and as that I think it’s great. I think it might overload the term dark patterns a bit too much, and would have liked to have seen a different name used (as a game design academic), but I absolutely agree with and appreciate the approach otherwise.

That makes sense! The list of dark games probably is most helpful to be like “here’s a list of games made to be addictive, what features that we spoke about are present in the games on this list?”
