I understand why materials affiliated with the subject matter aren't reliable due to possible biases in favor of the subject matter, however, the best information on how to play the game would come from the game itself. Therefore I think the tag saying it needs third party resources isn't necessary. If however, I were to make the claim that in Korea, Blue Marble Game is more popular than Monopoly, then naturally that would need to come from a third party source.Bethereds (talk) 19:52, 6 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It's not just about bias, it's about verifiability - we need reliable sources to confirm that the game is significant enough to be worth writing about in Wikipedia (if it hasn't yet received a single shred of press or academic attention, it's not yet time to write it up in an encyclopaedia), and to confirm that it exists at all (if the only given reference for a game is its own ruleset, the article could be a hoax!). --McGeddon (talk) 20:23, 6 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
There is plenty of press about it in Korean, but very little in English. That's part of the reason why I made this articleBethereds (talk) 02:44, 7 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
