Hi there!

We have some great news! In order to grow The Portable Gamer as a site, we have joined forces with 148Apps.com. You can expect the same great quality of coverage and reviews that you’ve gotten used to, and also feel secure that we are backed by the best iOS website network around.

With that in mind, we’ve been working hard on improving our game review process. We have a staff of quality writers who span the globe as well as the type of games they enjoy and review. Our audience for this site has been increasing steadily since we began, and we’re starting to see a whole slew of new game review requests. With that in mind, we’ve streamlined a bit.

The best way to get your game into our system for review is to send an email with a promo code to reviews@theportablegamer.com. When a developer sends us a game review request, we take a look at the game, categorize it, and prioritize it in our review queue database. At this point our reviewers/writers have access to it and are given the opportunity to choose what they would like to test and write about. They’re encouraged to focus on reviewing game types that they really like or care about. This makes for more insightful reviews, but because our ‘priority’ flags are more of a guide than a command it means we can’t place an exact time on when or if your game may be reviewed.

We’d like to point you to a resource you can use to promote your game, in the very typical case in which your game isn’t being reviewed as quickly as you would like it to be. 148Apps.com has added a “Developer App Promotion” section where they encourage Developers and Readers to post and interact on a more personal level. Since this is a new section, they are very open to suggestions on ways to improve it and make it grow so please feel free to let them know. 148Apps Forums – http://forum.148apps.com
