Game moderation and testing
How long does the game moderation take?
Moderators will check whether your game meets the requirements. Moderation time depends on the current number of applications. Moderation is not performed at night.
How can I test a game?
To open a game in test mode:
- Add a game via the Games Console and click Save.
- Refresh the Draft tab. This will enable the File checked link under Sources.
- Follow this link.
How can I check if my game runs in all browsers and operating systems?
Add the game via the Games Console and submit it for moderation. The moderators will check your game in all the browsers and operating systems listed in the requirements, in order of arrival. Moderation time depends on the moderators' current workload.
If the game runs incorrectly in a browser or operating system that's listed in the requirements, it doesn't pass moderation. A notification is sent to the email address saved in Yandex ID containing a detailed description of the reasons for rejection.
How can I check if I have configured ad calls correctly in my game?
Make sure that all of the following conditions are met:
- You've added the SDK code to your game's source files.
- You've uploaded the new version of the game via the Games Console, and it has successfully passed moderation.
- You have joined the Yandex Advertising Network and have clicked the Monetization button in the Games Console.
If all of the above conditions are met, one ad unit will automatically be added for every added game containing the SDK code. You can test the game and check the ads yourself: open the list of games on the Games Console and click the link to open the page with your game uploaded to our server.
Note
Due to our hosting limitations, ads might not be displayed locally on the game developer's device. However, the tracking of ad unit impressions and clicks begins immediately after you add them to your games. You can view the statistical reports in the YAN partner interface.
How do I test purchases?
To test purchases, log in to Yandex services with the account you used to create a developer account in the Games Console. This will make all in-game payments be considered test payments not subject to billing.
If you want to make a test purchase under a different account, follow the Test purchases instructions.
