Created by Siroxo (talk). Self-nominated at 09:00, 9 July 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Moderator Mayhem; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]
Article sufficiently new and long. Well-referenced throughout, hook verified and interesting. Copyvio not detected and QPQ indeed not yet needed. Good to go, maybe add "web-based" in front of "video game" but it's not required. Juxlos (talk) 04:45, 13 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks! I've added "web-based". —siroχo 05:03, 13 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
