Application Process:

  • Game Tunnel selects candidates to write based on a pre-screening process.  As we provide you with a copy of a game to review to begin your assignment, we do a pre-screening of candidates prior to providing you with your first assignment.  After that assignment you may continue to review games as long as the quality of your writing meets the site standard.
