Request PC Games Community Voting System

Welcome to AnkerGames's game request system, where the community decides what gets added to our pre-installed PC games library. Unlike traditional game platforms where developers or editors choose content, our request system is completely democratic—real gamers vote for the games they want to play. Since launch, we've successfully processed and approved 385 game requests with an impressive 82% success rate, demonstrating our commitment to fulfilling community demands. With 105 requests currently pending and gathering votes, our request system remains the most transparent and responsive way to expand our game collection based on what players actually want to download and play.

The request process is deliberately designed to be simple, transparent, and fair. Anyone can submit a game request by providing a valid Steam link and basic information about why the game would be a valuable addition to our library. Once submitted, your request becomes visible to the entire community on the pending requests section of this page. Other users can then vote to support your request, with each vote pushing it higher in our priority queue. When a request reaches 20 votes, it enters priority processing where our moderation team reviews it for technical feasibility and policy compliance. Games that pass moderation are approved and processed within 24 hours—downloaded, tested for compatibility, pre-installed, and published to our library with full metadata, screenshots, and system requirements.

Why do we require 20 votes before processing? This voting threshold serves multiple important purposes. First, it ensures we're allocating our resources toward games with genuine community interest rather than obscure titles only one person wants. Second, it prevents spam requests and maintains quality standards for our library. Third, it creates a natural prioritization system where the most wanted games rise to the top automatically without editorial bias. A game with 50 votes will always be processed before a game with 25 votes, ensuring the community's preferences directly determine our publishing schedule. This democratic approach has proven remarkably effective—our 82% approval rate demonstrates that community-voted requests align well with our technical capabilities and policy requirements.

Our request system maintains complete transparency through real-time status tracking. Every request on this page shows its current status (Pending, Approved, or Rejected), current vote count, submission date, and who requested it. Pending requests are sorted by vote count and recency, so you can immediately see which games are closest to the 20-vote threshold and might benefit from your support. Approved requests showcase our success stories—games that went from community suggestion to fully playable downloads thanks to collective voting. Rejected requests display the reason for rejection (typically DRM incompatibility or policy violations) so the community understands our decision-making process. This transparency builds trust and helps users submit better requests that align with our capabilities.

What types of games can you request? Technically, any game available on Steam is eligible for submission. However, approval depends on our ability to create a working pre-installed version. Games with intrusive DRM like Denuvo anti-tamper, always-online requirements, or kernel-level anti-cheat systems often cannot be pre-installed in a portable format, leading to rejection. We focus on DRM-free games, games with basic Steam DRM that can be removed post-installation, and titles that don't require persistent server connections for single-player functionality. Our moderation team evaluates each request's technical feasibility during the approval process, which is why gathering 20 votes first ensures we only invest processing time in games we can actually deliver. Most indie games, older AAA titles, and games without aggressive DRM sail through approval, while online-only multiplayer games or heavily protected new releases are typically rejected with explanations.

The community voting aspect extends beyond just getting games approved—it also helps surface hidden gems and underappreciated titles that might not trend on mainstream platforms. We've seen numerous cases where a small indie game requested by one passionate fan gathered dozens of votes from community members who discovered it through the request page, ultimately leading to approval and hundreds of downloads post-publication. This discovery mechanism works both ways: users discover new games by browsing pending requests, and developers benefit from organic exposure when their games are requested and voted up by genuine players. The request page has become more than just a submission form—it's a community-driven recommendation engine showing what real PC gamers are excited to play right now.

Participating in the request system is completely free and requires only a AnkerGames account. Whether you're submitting your first request, voting on pending submissions, or tracking requests you've supported, the entire system operates transparently with no hidden costs or premium tiers. Every user's vote carries equal weight, and approval decisions are based solely on vote count and technical feasibility—never on who submitted the request or external commercial considerations. With 385 successfully approved games and counting, our community-driven request system proves that giving players a democratic voice in content selection creates a library that truly reflects what gamers want to download, install, and play. Submit your request today, support pending games you'd like to see added, and help shape the future of our growing game collection.
