How we choose and check games and videos
MiniFreeOnlineGames embeds browser games from the GamePix and GameMonetize catalogues and videos from public YouTube channels. The site is run by Melih Koray, who curates and checks them against the content policy below. This page states the rules as they are applied — including what is automated and what is not.
1. The content policy for games
Every game in the provider feeds passes these written rules before it can go live:
- Banned categories. Whole provider categories are refused: shooter, first-person shooter, shooting, sniper, gun, war, gangster, mafia, hunting, fighting, zombie, horror, killing, battle royale, money and the Granny franchise.
- Banned phrases in the title, slug, description or tags: gambling (casino, poker, roulette, slot machine, lottery, real money…), crypto and trading simulators, crime and violence (heist, robbery, murder, assassin, torture, drug dealer…), named weapons, drugs and alcohol, sexual or adult themes (sexy, stripper, kissing games, plastic surgery…), horror brands (Granny, Slender Man, Siren Head, Huggy Wuggy, Poppy Playtime, Five Nights at…), Squid Game, and extreme toilet humour.
- Banned words in titles (matched as whole words, so “skill” does not trip “kill”): zombie, sniper, gun, gunner, gunfire, weapon, blood, bloody, kill, killer, killing, battle royale, war, warfare, prison, slap; shooter, shooting, shootout, “shoot ’em up”; kiss, kissing, girlfriend, boyfriend, dating.
- Exemptions for harmless matches: bubble, ball, marble, fruit, letter and similar “shooter” puzzles, and phrases such as “penalty shootout”, “tug of war” and “alphabet war”.
- Review queue. Borderline categories (tanks, boxing, wrestling, tycoon, card games, mahjong) and phrases (soldier, army, military, tycoon, millionaire, and game brands such as Minecraft, Fortnite, Roblox, Among Us and Skibidi) are held as “pending” instead of being published automatically.
On 6 October 2026 the whole-word rules were run over the live catalogue: they flagged 261 titles. Each one was reviewed individually; 156 stayed off the site and 105 harmless titles were restored on an allow-list.
2. Age tags
Game providers do not supply ages, so game age tags are set by rules: words in the title (for example “toddler” → 0–3, “preschool” → 2–5, “kindergarten” → 4–6), the game's learning topic, then a default for its category, and finally a broad 4–10 fallback. Video age tags are set when a video is added. Treat every age tag as an estimate and preview a game before handing it to a young child.
3. Which games are open to search engines
Passing the policy makes a game playable on the site; it does not make it indexable. Most game pages share the
provider's description with many other websites, so they are marked noindex,follow and left out of the
sitemap. A game is indexable only if it is live and either featured on the site or has both a one-sentence
editorial summary (drafted with an AI model from the provider's description) and at least one learning-topic tag.
Featured games come first, then the site's quality score, capped at 250 games.
4. Videos
Videos come from a fixed list of YouTube channels and play through YouTube's privacy-enhanced embed; they do not
autoplay. YouTube may still show its own ads inside some videos. The note shown under
“About this channel” is written once per channel. A video page is indexable only if it carries a note written
for that specific video (drafted with an AI model from the video's title and description; at least 100 characters,
not reused anywhere else) and at least one topic tag; up to 150
such videos are chosen, spread evenly across channels. All other video pages stay playable and linked but are
noindex,follow and out of the sitemap.
5. Category hubs
Only 15 kid-focused category hubs are open to search engines: Kids, Puzzle, Coloring, Drawing, Memory, Math, Brain, Jigsaw Puzzle, Trivia, Word, Educational, Animals, Music, Match 3, Board. Their first page carries a
short introduction; deeper pages and all other categories are noindex,follow.
6. What we do not claim
- Not every game has been played by a person; the rules above do most of the filtering.
- Games are third-party embeds and may show their publisher's own ads.
- Nothing here is medical or educational advice, and no pediatrician or teacher reviews the catalogue.
