Attention, all gamethinkers! Have you found yourself in a rut recently? Have the hidden gems begun to wear you down? Have you started using terms such as "ludonarrative dissonance" in your reviews and it's starting to freak you out? Do not fear; we have a solution! Introducing the Gamethinker Detox, a thirty-game program designed to realign your tastes and get you grounded again! Experience a collection of titles that are almost all overwhelmingly fine (with some exceptions), and use them as a guide to experience the industry the way that most people do! Use the challenges to point you towards a variety of games that'll be trash, games that'll be okay, and potentially even some games that'll blow you away. You never truly know what you're going to get with the Gamethinker Detox! Take on just a couple of challenges, or run the entire course; it's up to you and you alone! No matter how you try our program, there's a little something for everyone in the Gamethinker Detox!

Linked games are examples; part of the detox is picking your own games that fit the criteria! Completing games is not required, but is recommended. Do not attempt to do the entire detox within thirty days, as you will not have enough time. Try to avoid replaying games you've already played before unless the challenge demands otherwise.
