Deleting and restoring a game

Removing from the Yandex Games catalog

Warning

You can only delete a published game if there are no drafts created and no A/B tests running.

  1. Access the Games Console with your developer account.

  2. In the top left corner of the Console, click Applications.
  3. Find your previously uploaded game in the list and click on it.
  4. Go to the Published tab.
  5. At the bottom of the page, click Remove. The last deleted version of the game will appear on the Draft tab.

Complete deletion

Warning

Before completely deleting a game, you need to unpublish it.

  1. Go to the Draft tab.

  2. At the bottom of the page, select Remove. After this, the game cannot be restored.

Note

After deleting a draft, the empty application card remains as an entity for action history. To see it in the list on the Applications page, select on the right and uncheck the Hide deleted apps option.

Restoration

Alert

All materials on the Draft tab are stored on Yandex's server indefinitely, but when a draft is deleted, they are permanently removed, and it becomes impossible to restore the game.

If you removed the game from the catalog yourself, submit it for moderation:

  1. Go to the Draft tab.
  2. At the bottom of the page, click Submit for moderation to republish.

If the game was removed by a Yandex Games administrator, submit a restoration request:

  1. Open the feedback page.
  2. Select the Other question option.
  3. Fill in the required fields of the form. In the Message field, indicate that this is a request to restore the game.
  4. Click the Submit button.
