Just wondered if there is a working way to exclude some Genres Form a search. New & Popular is always full of Horror and/or NSFW-Games. But i would like to filter these Genres out, because i am tired of seeing only them.

I dont want to search for exact one genre or tag, because i would like to See unique Games, i wouldnt even thought of. I like creative and odd Games. Like that Project where you are in a Museum full of Wikipedia Articles! ( https://mayeclair.itch.io/museum-of-all-things )

Is filtering-out Genres possible?

Thanks for your answer! Well that kinda works! If i use that filter i dont get Games with "horror" in their tags. Strange is that the "result" counter still shows the exact same amount of Games but the Games showing up definetly change.

But it is just for one Tag and if you filter out horror you get MUCH porn xD So is it possible to combine Tags?

Edit: Worth mentionig that this ONLY works, if you are logged in . If you are not logged in, i suppose that filter defaults hidden into "tg.erotic" so that underaged users dont See NSFW Content.

Nice! That's a good start.

I think there is a way but I'm not sure, you may have to dig. Itch as a platform kinda has that issue.
