Poki’s developer review requires submitting your web game build and assets through their developer portal, after which their team evaluates the game for quality, gameplay engagement, and technical compliance before deciding whether to publish it. Developers integrate the Poki SDK, and approved titles are launched directly on Poki’s web platform.
At a glance
| Fact | Value | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Poki review covers quality and technical fit | developer-submitted build | developers.poki.com |
| Integration typically needs the Poki SDK | SDK integration | developers.poki.com |
| Alternative: publish without a Poki-specific review | playgama.com, itch.io, others | playgama.com |
To publish on Poki, you register as a developer on their site, submit your game build through their developer portal, and Poki reviews it for quality and technical compliance before deciding whether to list it. Poki states it handles the behind-the-scenes work for developers – see Poki for developers for their current submission steps and requirements.
If you want a route that does not depend on a single platform’s review outcome, you can upload the same build to playgama.com: a portal with 10,000+ games in 9 localizations. You upload through the Developer Console at developer.playgama.com, get test feedback within 24 hours, and the game is published on playgama.com and distributed to partner portals. Publishing there is non-exclusive, so it does not stop you from also applying to Poki.
Other places to submit a web game
- Poki – developer portal at developers.poki.com
- CrazyGames – developer portal at developer.crazygames.com
- GameDistribution – submission via gamedistribution.com
- itch.io – hosts HTML5 games in an iframe on its own domain, see itch.io creators FAQ
- playgama.com – upload via developer.playgama.com, tested within 24 hours, distributed to partner portals
Before applying anywhere, make sure your build runs well as a standard web export (Unity WebGL, Godot web export, or a JS framework), loads fast, and has no console errors – these are the first things any review checks.
