I know that some specific games/shows are not allowed on Scratch, such as FNAF. I realize that not all FNAF games on this platform are banned, but the topic seems to be mostly moderated by Scratch. Are there any other games or shows that are moderated in the same way, and if so, is there a page where I can find them all? If not, could a list be provided?

Hazbin Hotel is not allowed and another show I forgot


Sorry, you have to wait 60 seconds between posts -_-

A general list is probably not a good idea, because then Scratchers would see that list and be able to look up a bunch of inappropriate shows.

Squid Game and Hazbin Hotel are two examples that come to mind because they were incredibly popular — references to those shows are not allowed on Scratch. In practice, there are also others, but again it's not a good idea to list out a bunch of 18+ adult content by name.

Honestly, to be safe, I’d recommend avoiding horror franchises, 16+ or 18+ franchises, and similar.

I would believe any games/shows that are specifically made to be adult content (like, *that* type of thing) would probably be banned.

If you're not sure use the contact us button and ask the ST

If you search the franchise's name in the Search bar, and nothing comes up, it is definitely banned.

This isn't a foolproof way though. I agree with #6.

In the US, there's the ESRB* - which rates games based on how inappropriate they are. Definitely anything that's a “T” or above isn't allowed.

Same thing for shows. Anything above a “PG**” most likely isn't allowed.

Honestly, projects based on T-rated games or PG-13 rated movies might be allowed as long as they aren't direct emulations and are PG-ified. That's why FNAF isn't banned, just NFE'd.
