Non-notable video game failing to pass WP:GNG with no multiple reliable independent in-depth sources, such as WP:VG/RS. Of the two sources in the article, one is by the developer, the other is an announcement in a non-reliable source. Cannot locate any in-depth sources besides catalogue entries and announcements (single reliable non-trivial announcement [1]), in other words, no in-depth material such as reviews. Does not appear like we could write an article with the current materials available. Metacritic is absent even of unreliable reviews. (The developer does not have an article, where the game's entry could be merged otherwise and it is listed in publisher's article.) —  HELLKNOWZ  ▎TALK 16:54, 16 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Added more information to the Pocket Platoons page, citing two independent reviews of the game. Baraqorn (talk) 00:56, 20 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Speedy redirect to dev article: En Masse Entertainment. Analysis above is good, but dev article exists. Redirect as useful search term. czar 18:20, 16 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to En Masse Entertainment#Pocket Platoons. Anarchyte 05:26, 18 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect as this is unlikely independently notable. SwisterTwister talk 05:06, 19 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Week keep per these reviews. Otherwise, redirect or merge. edtiorEهեইдအီးËეεઈדוארई電子ಇអ៊ី전자ഇī 05:13, 19 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

These sources are unreliable by every measure. I wouldn't even call the second source a review. czar 05:42, 19 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
