Hi everyone,

I'm releasing an update today that allows users to hide giveaways for mature games. You may have seen them popping up on the homepage or in the featured giveaway section at times, and I'm aware not everyone wants to be exposed to this content. It can also be a turnoff for users visiting the community for the first time.

How it works

  • If you visit your account page, you'll see a new option to "hide mature games".
  • This setting only affects the giveaways you see on the homepage. You are still able to access the giveaways directly, or view them on user profiles.
  • Mature games will be hidden for logged out users.

What games will be classified as mature?

  • The account page includes a link so you can view a list of active giveaways that are currently being hidden with the setting. You can review the list and see if these are giveaways you want to participate in. Keep in mind, this is only a list of mature games with giveaways that are either open or coming soon. In total, we have over 7,500 games flagged in the database as mature.
  • The site automatically classifies games as mature based on their Steam advisory rating, and then moderators have tools to manually add or remove games.
  • The focus is on games that resemble pornography or games where sexual imagery is the focal point of the game (e.g. jigsaw puzzle games, that just contain adult images). A small number of low-effort or asset flip games that try to capitalize on shocking themes and content may also be added to the filter.

We'll do our best to maintain the list. However, you might occasionally see a game appear that shouldn't be there, since games are automatically flagged. We'll try to get these fixed in a timely manner, but please let us know if you see any notable mistakes that persist. Thanks!

I don't see an option to submit a support ticket for changing the list, so I'll just report here. Others have previously mentioned one obvious error with The Last of Us Part II Remastered which is still on the list; however, another game I don't think should be there is Pillow Fight which is a fighting game featuring girls in their underwear but does not have any sex or nudity according to the mature content description and is not marked adults only. It doesn't really fit with the other pornographic games.

"Mafia: The Old Country" should probably be removed from the list.
Mature - yes, sexual - probably not or at least it's not the focus of this game.

Is it at all possible to make the mature games filter behave more like the blacklist feature? By that I mean currently mature games are not shown on the list, but if you have the direct link you can still visit the page. Instead can it just block the page entirely, like the blacklist "You do not have permission to view this giveaway".

Seems underage people can find a giveaway for a mature game and then checkout the screenshots for it ... bypassing the Steam login to check out nudity.

Came back to bump the thread, this has been my favorite update on the website in many years, and I'm still in a lil' bit of bliss from not seeing Futa Furry BDSM part 550 or such nonsense.

Seriously, Thank you CG and any mods who worked on this.

As much as this is a great addition, there is a problem with this option:

There will be games that are inaccurately flagged, for example currently METAL GEAR SOLID Δ: SNAKE EATER has been flagged and added to mature list, so if you've enabled "hide mature games" you will not see any MGS: Delta giveaways.

Yay, better chances for us "pervs" that don't hide such games :-DDDD


EDIT: cg don't wanted better chances for us

I don't know if this is the right place to suggest it or if it has already been suggested.
Can we have something similar for the aforementioned overpriced games?
