Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Big Viking Games is a verified, established independent game studio in Canada (founded 2011) with significant revenue (est. $10M+) and a team of 50-100 employees. While the submission itself was low-effort and contained hyperbolic claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product'), external verification confirms the company's legitimacy, historical success with titles like YoWorld, and leadership in HTML5 technology. The score reflects the company's verified mature scale and market presence, heavily adjusted for the poor quality of the specific submission data.
