Legal notice on description

Summary

Hello, we are BR Entertainment, creators of islands in UEFN.

After carefully reviewing your rules for creators, we have not been able to satisfy you in the way we expected. Let me explain, we are developing an experience in UEFN and there are mechanics that are similar to those of other video games, so that there is no confusion about plagiarism, which is not the case, it is proposed that BR Entertainment create a legal notice web page to legally warn that it is not called plagiarism.

Since it cannot be included in the experience itself, we would like to ask if we can include something like this in the description of our experience:

(description here) Legal notice: https://example.com Regards, BR Entertainment.

Hi! I’m also a creator and just wanted to mention that types of interactions, rules, or general gameplay mechanics aren’t protected by copyright, since they are abstract ideas. What is protected by copyright and could be considered plagiarism is the way someone implements those ideas, like specific art, code, music, etc. So it’s fine to take inspiration from mechanics in other games, and I don’t think it’s necessary to include a link in your experience’s description.
