Interface elements
Requirement 8.3.4
Media content do not contain the following elements:
- System interface elements: status bar, phone battery indicator, etc.
- User interface elements of Yandex Games: badges, game rating, etc.
However, any game interface elements (for example, a health bar or a timer) are allowed, but not on icons or covers.
Using prohibited interface elements may distract the player, mislead them, or create a false impression of the game's content. Such elements must not be present in materials uploaded as drafts. Ratings, badges, and other interface elements are added by the Yandex Games platform.
Failure to comply with these requirements may result in refusal to publish the game or its removal.
