How We Decide What Ends Up on Pine Hub

People assume we have some clever system for picking games. We don't. We play a lot, and we write about the ones that stuck with us.

Someone on the team spots a release, installs it, and plays for a few sessions across several days. If it holds up, it gets passed around and we decide together whether it's worth a full write-up.

Plenty of games never make it. If something bores us or breaks after an hour, that's usually the end of it, unless the failure itself is interesting enough to warn you about.

We lean toward small studios and genre variety on purpose. The charts already cover the giants. We'd rather point you at the overlooked ones.
