What about a special "category" for it?
Or -as an alternative- the "tools" section could be expanded?

I was under the impression that the site was against utilities since the request section FAQ explicitly forbids it. Though I'm sure there's some kind of loophole with 3D Construction Kit/Virtual Reality Studio since the first one allows for game creation

What I meant was the "Programs and Utilities" section.

Not all of those are directly related to gaming.
Useful also for gaming, but not only for / limited to gaming.

The criterion to be in that list is for an utility to be useful to run old games, together with the requirement to be free or abandonware itself; it's not to be abandonware only. Expanding that list without bounds would beat the purpose of making it a useful selection of useful utilities.

I'd love Abandonia to host non gaming abandonware, as well as abandonware games for any platform, but in my opinion we have 99 things to fix before we can think of stuff like that.
