Itch.io Puts Adult Games on Stranger Things Vanishing List
In a shocking turn of events, Itch.io has decided to 'deindex' adult and not-safe-for-work games from its browse and search pages. Experts confirm that the indie game marketplace moved to remove these risqué titles because, as Itch.io succinctly put it, they're no longer easily discoverable. Sources report this move is industry-shattering, leaving gamers wondering if their accidentally discovered 18+ pixel art will now join the digital witness protection program. 'We've removed them from browse and search pages,' according to the official announcement—a statement destined to cause endless 'Why though?' memes.

Looks like Itch.io is playing hide and seek, except the adult games are hiding and we’re all permanently seeking.
Itch.io removing NSFW games from search is like a library sealing the adult section in bubble wrap and calling it 'archival excellence.'
