Project
- We aim to list every PC game that revived by community. Once a game is revived, it is saved in game history forever.
- The ultimate target is save all games in playable status.
What this list contains
For every game in this list, it must be:
- The game has already shutdown by developer and publisher without any alternative service such as official self-hosted server released, resulting partial or fully unplayable
- At least one community project successfully makes this game partial or fully playable again. Playable definition should at least mean that a player can reach most of the main content. (For example, a racing game is playable means a player can enter and finish a match with AI or other players. A project only allow entering car selection without match implementation is not playable)
What's not in this list
- Games not compatible with modern system with projects make it compatible (It's still playable for the original game as legacy hardware can still run today or virtual machine can be used)
- Games with self-hosted server released (It's still playable as anyone can host a server by their own)
- Games without online features but community projects add it (It's a new feature, not revived)
- Games with official support not ended yet
Main contacts
How to add to this list
This list is a manual list, as there is no such parameter to filter games meet the condition. Please manually insert the game as the following format:
| Game Name | Released date | EOL date | Project Name | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sample Game | 2000-01-01 | 2010-01-01 | Sample Revived | Full |
- A game can have multiple projects seperately listed.
- Status is how much of the content is playable, can be: Full (Everything in game playable), Most (Only tiny parts unplayable), Partial (Some parts are playable), Basic (Only main content is playable) and a special value Unstable (Although playable for some or all parts, but exists fatal issues)
