PS We are also a member of the Market Research Society's Recruitment Accreditation Scheme - which just means we approach all recruitment in a professional and quality-led manner.

To join our playtesting community, click a JOIN NOW button on this page, and share your gaming preferences (and contact details) in a short online survey. We'll review your application and contact you if you match the criteria for upcoming playtests.

We welcome individuals from various backgrounds, gaming experiences, and demographics. Whether you're a casual gamer or a hardcore enthusiast, your insights are valuable to us.

Most of our projects are for gamers aged 18-45, though each project has its own unique requirements.

We are typically asked to recruit gamers from the UK, USA, and Canada - but more and more, we are being asked to recruit gamers from other key and/ or emerging gaming markets.

Our playtests are primarily conducted online, allowing participants from the UK, USA, and beyond to join from the comfort of their homes.

We also offer face-to-face/ in-person research and playtest opportunities - normally centred around cities like London, Los Angeles, and Montreal. These sessions typically take place in the playtest facilities of game development studios or their publisher partners.

During a playtest, you'll engage with unreleased games or features and provide feedback on your experience. Sessions vary in length but typically last between a few hours and a few days. On occasions, we do look for gamers to participate in a week of playtesting.

Other research sessions are much more straightforward and typically last 1-2 hours.

Yes, we value your time and feedback. Participants are usually compensated with monetary rewards, gift cards, or exclusive merchandise, depending on the specific study.

For online research (e.g. a focus group), you can expect £75/ $100 or higher. 

For in-person playtests at a client's test lab, you can expect a daily rate of £125/ $150 or higher - depending on the duration of the playtest.

If you're a match for an upcoming opportunity, we'll reach out to you via email and text/ SMS with all the necessary details, including session timings and any preparatory information.

Absolutely! You're welcome to participate in as many playtests as you qualify for. Regular involvement is encouraged, as it provides diverse insights for our clients.

However, please note that we are keen not to overuse players and like our clients to see fresh faces in their research and/ or playtests. Our paid opportunities should not be viewed as a secondary income source but more an opportunity to help shape the future of something you love or enjoy, i.e. video gaming.

Your feedback is compiled and shared with our clients—game developers and researchers—to help them refine and enhance their products. Your insights play a crucial role in shaping the future of gaming experiences.

To update your details, simply reach out to us at info@gromotion.co.uk with your new information, and we'll ensure your profile is up to date. The more up-to-date your profile, the better chance you have of selection.

Coming soon: We aim to bring in an account level to our website. You'll be able to log-in to see all the latest game user research or playtest opportunities, but also have the ability to keep your contact details and gaming preferences up-to-date.
