Motivation

The Game Classification (Q123669862) website, which came out of an academic research project on game classification and indexes 3418 games, indexes in its creatools subdomain a database of 501 “Game creation toolkits” (ie engines etc.). We have very few identifiers for such things (although not all will be notable). Jean-Fred (talk) 20:07, 6 December 2023 (UTC)

•  Support We have very few identifiers (if any?) for game engines and such right now, this would definitely help improve coverage. Lewis Hulbert (talk) 23:14, 6 December 2023 (UTC)

  As far as I can tell − IGDB game engine ID (P11046) and Mod DB engine ID (P11132) ; also LGDB game engine ID (P5119) but the DB is long-dead. MobyGames group ID (P11690) also covers engines. But yeah, that’s not a lot :) Jean-Fred (talk) 21:37, 8 December 2023 (UTC)
