What Prima Games eGuides is
Prima Games eGuides is a web library of official video game strategy guides, including walkthroughs, maps, collectible checklists, and boss tactics. Readers can search the archive in full text. The library lists 251 guides and 25,589,130 words of strategy; a redeem-code page says all 256 guides are available in full to anyone with a free Prima Games account. Without an account, readers can access three guides from beginning to end and the first three sections of other guides. Guides work on phones, and checklists can remember where a reader stopped. Maps and checklists load within guide pages from an embedded source, so privacy extensions or networks that block embedded frames can prevent them from appearing. The eGuides store is closed, and guides cannot be purchased or refunded through the site. Accounts and purchases from the old store were migrated, and users can sign in with their old account email. Sign-in can use a one-time email link that expires after 15 minutes, or a password if the user has one. Available guides were published between 2009 and 2018.
