āThis year is the 5th Quarter Quell, the 125th Hunger Games. As with every Quarter Quell, these special Hunger Games are different than the normal games.ā The president reaches behind her and is handed an envelope, which she carefully opens. Taking out the yellowed and aged card, she reads it. āFor the 5th Quarter Quell, to remind the districts that the war was prolonged, this year the game shall last longer than any other games before it. And as a special reminder that the rebels sacrificed one person to be the face of the rebellion, one extra tribute shall be reaped from the districts.ā
The second part is aimed directly at district 13, as they had picked Katniss to be the face of their rebellion, which ultimately failed in a lot of ways.
So, is this intended to just be an interactive fanfic, basically? COG doesnāt accept Hosted Games that use someone elseās IP. Just asking for clarification.
I would assume that the only games you can make and publish are using content that is in the public domain, though itās still nice to see ones for others like this one.
Yes, I know that you can if the author gives permission, but in this case I felt it was safe to assume that Suzanne Collins didnāt give you permission to publish her IP.
Regardless, itās nice that youāre thinking about writing an interactive fan fiction. My only suggestion would be to play a few of the other games around here to get a feel for what COG audiences typically expect from a story. Namely, I think you should include a non-binary option for your gender choice, and reword that section so that people are selecting their gender instead of their sex.
If I ever want to publish this, I will find a way to contact her, but I donāt want to approach her with barely a few pages worth of a game. I would want to show her something a bit moreā¦substantial. Like having all the districts done, the reaping, and possibly the intro to the capitol.
I have a bit of experience already actually. Iāve worked with another WIP author on a game and Iāve learned a little bit of coding in my spare time. So far Iāve had very little issues, but itās more challenging than I expected.
People are just trying to be helpful. =)
CoG themselves have said that they would not publish such works (itās written on the website).
Though you can still make one available for free.

I wonder, will there be any romance in this game? I feel like itās totally possible there wonāt be, but there is in the books/movies soooā¦ but besides that, I really am excited for more as I used to be really into The Hunger Games so its nostalgic for me! And good luck with publishing it if that is the route you want to pursue!
Hey, so I played through the demo and I really like your writing style and tone you use. I have caught a problem, if you select to be from district 11 when it takes you to the page where you select your section in the district it gives 2 options instead of 5 you would need based on your description and when you select one and continue it takes you to the section and background info for district 13.
Iām a HUGE fan of the hunger game books so Iām glad theirs some type of fan fic story of this and Iāll play it through out when you begin updating it.
Yeah you canāt officially publish or release and make money off anything which is copyrighted like that unless itās in the public domain like Sherlock Holmes. Fan fiction where you are doing it for fun or practice is fine.
For the 100th Quarter Quell, every district was given extra food, clothing, medicine, homes were rebuilt and updated, buildings were restored to their original glory, and while the Hunger Games were still on, the blow of reaping three boys and three girls from each district was slightly softened by the better treatment the districts received.
It is hard to ignore this when the title is āHunger Games: 5th Quarter Quellā.
Just take the Hunger Games part out of it and leave the battle royale part. That is after all what this is about. If that isnāt enough itās not like battle royale books are limited to hunger games. I remember reading somewhere that the Hunger Games premise was taken from another book.
