Who makes SelynCraelOnyx, how games are chosen and checked, and the rules we write by.
SelynCraelOnyx.com is an independent guide to free browser games, published by the SelynCraelOnyx editorial team. The guides were first published in September 2026. The site describes games that are hosted on Poki.com; it does not host, run or sell them.
Guides are written and checked by the SelynCraelOnyx editorial team. Two editors carry the work between them: one writes the guides, the other checks every game before it is published.
Margaux has written about browser games for nine years, first for a small French games magazine and since 2021 on her own. She decides which games are worth a guide and writes most of them.
Tobias plays every game through before a guide goes out, on both a desktop and a phone. He was a QA tester for eight years, which is where the habit of writing down controls came from.
A game is included when it runs in a browser without installation, is free to play on Poki.com and can be explained accurately in one guide. Before writing, we open the game, and we take the developer, devices and controls from its Poki page. Every guide follows the same fields and sections, including drawbacks such as advertising or difficulty. Guides are checked again when a game changes.

We are independent of Poki and of the developers of the games we describe. Nobody pays to have a game included or described, and links to Poki are ordinary links. When a guide is updated, its 'Checked' date changes to match.
If a guide is wrong or out of date, tell us on the Contact page. We review every report, correct the guide where needed and update its date.
