SCP:Containment Breach , legal to adapt?

Aren’t the SCP games based on fictional case files on a site of the same name?

If I’m right, and the games were based off the site (no vice versa), then I think it’s really the original creator of the SCP site you need to contact.

I’d like some conformation on this though.

DERP! Yeah it seems so , I just stumbled upon the game first and later the wiki that’s why I thought game came first then expanded feeding on its wiki.

Anyway reading the licence shows coast is clear to do anything as long as it stays free, It can also sell if you can workaround legal ******** and still then cc wont allow you to enforce any copyright on derivative work on some of the content e.g. the scp-173.

So a free game is a full go without problem with proper credits given to wiki.

In order for your derivative work to be kosher, you need to do two things:

1. Attribute the works that you’re using to the wiki and to the specific author, if possible. For example:

682’s Lovely Tea Party is based on “SCP-682” by “Dr Gears”: ://scp-wiki.wikidot/scp-682

2. Add the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 license (or CC-BY-SA for short) to the derived work. Doing this will release it under the CC-BY-SA license.

Releasing it under the CC-BY-SA license means that people will be able to copy your work wholesale, and even sell it, provided that they properly attribute you and release their work under the same license.

Also, do not sell SCP-173-related stuff. Please. It’s a massive headache for all parties involved. And might get you sued, depending on the context. Just don’t.
