Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) The Manhole
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) This screenshot provides users with illustrative and informative details regarding typical gameplay of The Manhole game along with details regarding elements of the graphical portion of the software and also assistance in interpreting critical commentary about the software. Among other things, the screenshot shows visual elements, overall style, the usage of visuals as opposed to written words in the game world, and the emphasis on shading and detail even with the original black-and-white Apple Mac release. In addition, the graphical interface is the main point of usage of The Manhole game and therefore it affects how the software is used and experienced by the user.
Not replaceable with
free media because
(WP:NFCC#1)
A screenshot from a freely licensed game with similar design and gameplay (assuming such a game existed) would not be faithful and accurate when providing illustrative and informative details specifically regarding The Manhole game.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) This screenshot is of lower resolution than the original (about 48% of the original 512 x 342 screenshot) and comprises a very small part of The Manhole game. In addition, the screenshot is used only in this article which is specifically about the software from which the screenshot was taken and the article contains only one screenshot from the software.
Respect for
commercial opportunities
(WP:NFCC#2)
The screenshot is being used in this article to provide illustrative and informative details in conjunction with encyclopedic information and to assist users in interpreting critical commentary about the software. These uses are different from the original market uses of marketing software and facilitating usage of the software. In addition, a single low resolution screenshot should not replace the market for higher resolution screenshots or for The Manhole game itself. It should not be possible to generate illegitimate copies of the software from this single screenshot.
