Meta request for information before reviewing

[rasellman]

One thing that has troubled me about reviewing Alpha games is that from the Reviews screen, you can see all the available alpha games, but unless you join the group you can't see any details about the game. I'm wondering if a change could be made to allow reviewers to see the game page even if they haven't signed up.

There are a number of games I *think* I recognize, but I'm not 100% sure, and being able to see some additional details like screenshots or something would help me to know if it's something I know already, or would be interested in learning more about.

Access rights for alpha games (including the game page) rely on being in the game's players group.
So you don't have access to the game page before starting a review (which adds you to the players group for this game).

In practice, you can cancel a review. So don't hesitate to start a review, check out the game page, then cancel the review if you are not interested in reviewing this specific game.
