How to Rate Your Game

The American Amusement Machine Association (AAMA) is committed to informing the public about which video games are appropriate for players and their families.  In response to the questions that can arise from the wide variety of video games that are offered today, the AAMA, together with Congress and child advocacy groups has created the Coin-Operated Video Game Parental Advisory System.

This easily understandable system informs players of the content of the video game they have chosen to play through a color-coded, “traffic light” approach.  All new coin-operated video games that are manufactured must show the disclosure message in the artwork of the game header.  All previously manufactured games must carry a sticker with the appropriate disclosure message.  To order disclosure message stickers, please fill out the order form and fax it to the AAMA office at 847.290.9121.

In order to determine the correct rating for your game, simply follow the guidelines of the AAMA’s game rating system by answering the numbered questions accordingly.  Please be aware that these guidelines have been revised and all new games must be rated according to the new specifications.  After filling out the form with the appropriate rating for your game(s), please fax the competed form to the AAMA office at 847.290.9121 so that we may include your games in our game ratings list.
