Adding and editing a game

Can I add a game that requires Flash Player to your server?

No, you can't.

However, the Yandex Games team is constantly working on improving the service and plans to implement this feature.

Can I add a game with a server side?

Yes. To do this, upload the game to our server using the Games Console.

How long are games stored on the Yandex server?

All the uploaded games, including those depublished from the catalog, are stored on the Yandex server indefinitely.

Does the Yandex Games platform support WebGL?

Yes, but the WebGL library must be enabled in the browser running the game (this option is called Use hardware acceleration in most browsers).

If you want to test how WebGL works in Yandex Browser, add your game to our server and submit it for moderation. A link to the page with the uploaded game will appear in the list of games in the Games Console. Follow this link to test your game.

Can I edit a game after publication?

Yes, you can make any changes to the game parameters or source code. However, after you make the changes and upload a new archive to our server, the game must be resubmitted for moderation and checked for compliance with the requirements.

The new version of the game will only become available to users after it has successfully passed moderation and been published. Until then, the catalog will display the previous version of the game.

How can I integrate the game via an iframe using my server?

To integrate the game via an iframe using your server, send a request to the support chat. In your request, list the name of the game, the developer account, and a link to the game in https format. Explain why you want to use an iframe instead of uploading an archive.

Can I delete and then restore a game?

You can remove a game from the Yandex Games catalog at any time. To do this:

  1. Access the Games Console with your developer account.

  2. Click Applications in the upper-left corner of the Games Console.
  3. Find a previously uploaded game in the list and click its name.
  4. Click Remove.

The Yandex Games administrator can restore the game in the catalog only if you haven't deleted the draft. To submit a request to restore a game:

  1. Open the feedback form.
  2. Select Other question.
  3. Fill in the required form fields. In the Message field, specify that you want to restore the game.
  4. Click Send.

What host can I publish a game on?

For information about permitted hosts, see the article New Host Access Rules and Content Security Policy.

If you need specific hosts for your game, go to the Games Console, open the Settings tab, and specify the hosts and why you need them.
