Verified by Sifter
If your game respects players' time and wallets, show it. Games that score Design Risk ≤10 and Joy ≥70— our existing “healthy” tier — qualify for a Verified badge you can embed on your store page, website, or press kit. It always reflects the current live score, so it stays honest as your game and its community change.

How scoring works
Design Risk is severity-weighted, not presence-weighted — a cosmetic-only battle pass scores far lower than pay-to-win mechanics. Sifter scores every public Steam listing automatically — you can't apply for a better score. See how scoring works for the full methodology.

You can't apply for a better score — but if Sifter mischaracterized a specific fact about your game (e.g. we marked a cosmetic-only battle pass as pay-for-power), tell us here.
