Fortune Games® — Editorial Policy & Publishing Principles

Contact: editorial@fortunegames.ai

Our mission

Fortune Games® publishes independent, educational content that helps adults (18+) understand how online slot games work so they can make safer, more informed choices. We do not encourage harmful play. All content is produced with a compliance-first mindset and aligned to UK safer?gambling standards.


What we publish

  • Game reviews and head-to-head comparisons (mechanics, RTP, volatility, features, stake limits).

  • Explainers about slot maths (how RTP is calculated, hit rate, variance).

  • Responsible gambling guidance with links to support resources.

Educational only: Nothing we publish is financial or betting advice. Outcomes in games of chance are random and cannot be predicted.


Sourcing & verification (E-E-A-T)

We prioritise primary sources and verify factual data before publication:

  1. Developer & regulator documents (official game fact sheets, certification summaries, UKGC-compliant help screens).

  2. In?game help menus from the live UK product.

  3. Secondary sources (e.g., recognised industry databases) are used only to cross?check.

What we verify: title/version, provider, RTP configuration(s) available in the UK, paylines/ways, volatility (where disclosed), min/max stake, feature rules, and age?tier stake limits.

If data cannot be confirmed from a primary source, we mark it “Not stated” or “Unknown” and explain why.


Review & comparison methodology

  • Reviews: We explain the core rules, maths model, and features in plain English. Where helpful, we run a controlled 50?spin session to illustrate pacing. This sample is educational—not predictive of future results.

  • Comparisons: We align like-for-like facts (e.g., UK RTP variant, stake limits). When games offer multiple RTPs, we display the UK-certified or publicly announced configuration and call out alternatives when known.

  • Verdicts: Pros/cons and “Best for” notes are the reviewer’s opinion, not a guarantee of outcomes.


Author expertise & accountability

  • Every article lists an author and editor with a brief bio and a link to LinkedIn.

  • Authors have demonstrable experience in game analysis and RTP verification; editors perform compliance checks.

  • Where relevant, memberships of recognised bodies (e.g., the International Gaming Standards Association) are disclosed only if verifiable.


Fact-checking, updates & corrections

  • Pre-publish: A second person verifies key facts (RTP, stakes, volatility disclosure, features, age-tier limits).

  • Updates: Core facts are re?checked at least every 90 days or immediately if a developer changes specs.

  • Corrections: If we get something wrong, we fix it promptly and add a timestamped change note at the foot of the page. You can request a correction via editorial@fortunegames.ai.


Use of AI in our workflow

  • We use AI tools to assist with research aggregation, outline generation, data extraction from public documents, and consistency checks.

  • Humans remain accountable: every article is drafted, edited, fact-checked, and approved by a human editor before publication.

  • We respect robots.txt and rate-limits when collecting public facts. Proprietary or paywalled material is not ingested.


Conflicts of interest

  • Reviewers and editors do not accept gifts, payments, or influence from game providers to alter opinions or coverage.

  • Any material relationship that could present a conflict is disclosed on-page.


Responsible gambling & eligibility

  • Content is for 18+ audiences only.

  • We signpost support: BeGambleAware.org, GamCare, GamStop, and other regional services.

  • Availability of games and stake limits vary by operator and jurisdiction. Always check the in-game help screen for the version you play.


User content & moderation

  • We currently do not host open public comments on reviews. If/when comments are enabled, posts will be pre-moderated for accuracy, safety, and civility.


Legal & takedown

  • We respect intellectual property. To report a rights issue or request a takedown, email editorial@fortunegames.ai with the URL and evidence.


Accessibility & style

  • We aim for clear headings, tables on mobile, descriptive alt text, and screen?reader compatible markup.

  • We avoid dark patterns, exaggerated claims, and unverifiable superlatives.
