EGS is an independent gaming website.

EGS is an independent gaming website focused on practical game guides, tips, recommendations, and strategy. Rather than simply documenting what exists in a game, EGS focuses on explaining:

How to play more effectively, what is actually worth doing, and which choices can make the experience easier or more enjoyable.

Guides are written with the player in mind, combining first-hand gaming experience, research, and SEO-focused writing to make information both useful and easy to find.

Background of EGS.

EGS is independently run by a writer and gamer with an academic background in both the arts and humanities.

As the site owner, I studied at Peking University, completing bachelor’s degrees in Art and English Literature, with a particular focus on film and literary criticism. With an interest in analysing stories, characters, stats, and details, I approach games as more than just collections of mechanics and statistics. Narrative, design, player choice, atmosphere, and the overall experience are all part of what makes a game worth discussing.

EGS guides are built around first-hand gaming experience.

EGS guides are built around first-hand gaming experience and practical research.

Information is tested directly in-game or through game files and code, rather than simply reproduced from another website. Guides are written to answer the questions players actually have, while providing enough context to explain why a particular approach may be useful.

The writing process also draws on experience in SEO content writing, allowing guides to be structured around the information players are searching for without sacrificing readability or usefulness.

Looking Beyond English-Language Sources

  • Important information about a game is not always available in English. Chinese gaming communities can contain different strategies, discoveries, guides, discussions, and interpretations that may not have been widely covered by English-language websites.
  • EGS therefore draws on both English and Chinese resources when researching games. This has led to guides covering subjects such as Sultan’s Game, as well as more unusual topics such as The Sims 4 AI model guide and Chinese narrative games including Fools, Maniacs and Liars.
