Editorial Policy

This page explains who is responsible for the guides, lessons and tools on otterlygames.com, what they are meant to do, and how to ask us to fix something.

Who is responsible

Otterly Games is a small independent studio that makes the games and publishes the website. Our guides, lessons and tools are written and published by the studio under the Otterly Games name, and the studio is accountable for them. Guides are bylined to Otterly Games, not to an individual, and we do not present them as the work of named outside experts.

Otterly Games makes and sells (or gives away) the games we write about, including Clock Master and Math Tank. Our guides can mention those games and link to them, so please read them as coming from the publisher of those products, not as independent reviews.

What our guides are

Our parent guides are practical, plain-language ideas for helping children practise skills such as telling time or times tables at home. They draw on our experience building these games and on commonly used classroom and family practice methods.

• They are not medical, psychological, developmental or special-education advice. If you have concerns about a child’s learning, speak to a teacher, doctor or other qualified professional.
• They are not research reviews. Unless a page names a specific source, treat it as practical guidance, not as scientific evidence that a method works for every child.
• We do not claim that our games or guides improve test scores or produce particular results.

Sources, updates and corrections

Where a guide relies on a specific outside source or fact, we aim to name it. Our games and tools change over time, so guides that describe them may become out of date. We have no fixed review schedule and do not promise that every page is current; where a page shows a date, that date is the one we have recorded for it.

If you tell us about an error, we look at it, and if it is wrong or misleading we correct the page. We do not hide changes that matter, such as a corrected fact, and we may note the correction on the page when that helps readers.

To report a mistake or ask for a correction, use our contact form and choose “Editorial correction or feedback”. Please include the page address and what you think is wrong. Please do not include children’s names or other identifying details.

Game screenshots and illustrations

Screenshots, icons and illustrations on this site come from our own games and brand artwork. Screenshots show the game as it appears at the time they were taken, and games may look different after updates. We do not use images to suggest features, results, endorsements or users that do not exist.

Ads, support and business relationships

Advertising, support and in-app purchase options differ between the website, browser games and individual Android apps, and can change. See each game’s store listing and our privacy policy for what applies to that product. Our about page describes how the studio works, and our support page covers support and partnerships. Our guides are not written to promote third-party products.
