Category Standard

Project verified as 1047 Games, creators of the viral hit 'Splitgate' (Halo meets Portal). The entity achieved Unicorn status with a $1.5B valuation and 15M+ downloads, confirming exceptional Real-World Utility and Traction. However, the submission quality is poor (hyperbolic claims like 'most people have used my product'), and the specific game submitted is currently being sunset for a sequel, affecting Market Timing. The high score reflects verified historical success despite the low-effort submission.
