About us
The gaming publication built for players, by players
FictionHive·Games is a gaming media platform for people who want more than press releases and recycled headlines. We publish news, reviews, opinion, buying guides, hardware breakdowns and long-form stories across every major platform: PC, PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo and mobile.
Our mission
Why we exist
We started FictionHive·Games in 2026 to build a gaming publication that treats its readers as a community, not a metric.
Whether you are chasing the next big release, hunting for a deal, or trying to decide which GPU gives you the best value, our goal is to give you content that is honest, readable and genuinely useful.
Members can read and share articles, react and comment, play embedded browser games, climb leaderboards, and earn credits through a reward economy that recognizes real participation rather than empty clicks.
Our expertise
What we cover
Reviews
Hands-on, scored reviews after real playtime.

Tested recommendations for games, GPUs, CPUs and full PC builds.
News & opinion
Context and honest takes on what is happening in the industry.
Guides & features
Practical walkthroughs and deep long-form stories worth your time.
Our standards
How we work
Trust is earned. Here is how we protect it on every article we publish.
Hands-on testing
Games are played and hardware is benchmarked before we form an opinion. If we did not test it, we say so.
Editorial independence
Reviews and recommendations are never for sale. Sponsored content is always clearly labeled and kept separate from editorial.
Affiliate transparency
Some links earn us a commission at no extra cost to you. This never influences our scores or picks.
Corrections policy
When we get something wrong, we fix it, note the change, and are transparent about what was updated.
Leadership
Meet the founder
Amin Joukar
Founder
I'm the Co-Founder and CEO of FictionHive. I hold a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from Purdue University and have spent my career solving complex engineering challenges through computational simulation. My expertise is in finite element analysis (FEA) for medical devices, where I've developed advanced simulation methods to support the design of innovative technologies. At FictionHive, I bring that same analytical mindset and passion for innovation to building software that empowers game developers.
