Retired Game Types

From time to time, Drimify retires an older game type, usually because a newer version (often a 3D upgrade) now offers the same experience. Retiring a game type doesn't remove or break anything you've already built with it. This article explains exactly what does and doesn't change.


Your existing games keep running


If you already have a game built on a retired type, nothing changes for your players:


  • The game stays live and playable exactly as before, following its own plan and schedule.
  • Scores, leads, and all other data keep recording normally.
  • You can keep editing it - settings, branding, content, everything.


What stops is support: we no longer maintain or update that game type going forward.


Why you can't duplicate it anymore


Once a game type is retired:


  • You can no longer duplicate an existing game built on it (see Experience Duplication for how duplication normally works).
  • It's removed from the catalogue, so you can't create a brand new game with that type either.


This restriction starts as soon as the retirement is announced — not only once the game type reaches its end-of-life date. If you need a new game with a similar experience, check the catalogue for its newer version.


The badge on your dashboard


Any game built on a retired type shows a small badge next to its name in your dashboard:


  • Support ending (orange) — the type is retired but hasn't reached its end-of-life date yet. Hover the badge to see the exact date.
  • Unsupported (grey) — the end-of-life date has passed.


This badge is only shown to workspace members who can edit or create apps. View-only members won't see it.


The banner in the game editor


Opening a game built on a retired type also shows a banner at the top of the editor, with the same information: how long the type is still supported for (or that support has already ended), and a reminder that the game keeps running either way.


FAQ


Will my game stop working when the game type is retired?
No. It keeps running and stays fully editable — only duplication and new creation are blocked.


Can I still edit a game built on a retired type?
Yes, editing is untouched by retirement.


How do I know which date my game type retires on?
Hover the badge on your dashboard, or open the game; the date is shown in the banner at the top of the editor.
