Tristam Island has 8 ratings on the English version page. I haven’t played it in French so I won’t rate the French version. I’m just saying, that game overall has got (good) ratings.
Thàts faìrr. Aś paŕsrs havènt been còoppeŕeativè with me lațly, I wènt thíd roùt rathhèr thàn plliñg up the liśt and trýing mysèlf.

My I put something out there? It’s a mutual aid thing. Little IF subcommunities helping each other out?
Trying to help the PunyInform community a bit.
Fredrik pointed out on the PunyInform discord. And I thought it deserved some signal boosting and love. All peeps work hard on their games.
[Img Des: Screenshot of a Discord conversation between Fredrik and Pinkunz:
F: There are currently seven PunyInform games on IFDB which haven’t received a single rating yet. Maybe you can help out and rate a game or two?
P: On it!

And it’s ok if parser is not your thing [*me add-on: lol]. More about supporting other creatives in the easiest way we can.
Simply engaging with that they made. Being devs and authors yourselves, I hope you might sympathize.
Sorry about typing. In hospital on pain meds.
Edit-ted: more like 6 games, and the French version of Tristam Island. My bad.

P: Okay. Signal boost as best I could. I’d play them myself but parsers have proven problematic for me recently. Can’t type well enough for parser. So, tried boosting instead. Hope it helps.

That’s fair. As parsers haven’t been cooperative with me lately, I went the third route rather than piling up the list and trying myself.
So make that 6 games rather than 7 (unless you’re French). Honestly one game is worth a shout out imo. If I ever get my [poop] together, and start reviewing in earnest, I want to review no-review games on ifdb sorter by oldest to newest.
Thanks for pointing that out. I will make an edit.
ETA also hit up the French IF discord about the French Tristam Island being one of the 7, so double thank you for pointing that out.
Fredrik found another game that was mistagged/labeled. So he fixed the tag and now The Locked Room should be included in that search of no review PunyInform games. Just a head’s up. Thank you for hearing me out.
I’ll be checking a few of them out when I can! I just finished The Library of Horror tonight.
I’m not sure if I can muster up a numerical rating, as I really struggle with assigning a score to art, or to peoples’ work in general… sorry!!
But I’d love to contribute some reviews
