Here's what NDA Guard found in a real-world publisher NDA. No waiting, no signup — this is exactly what you get.
Analysis Summary
high riskThis NDA contains several predatory clauses that heavily favor the publisher. The IP assignment clause is dangerously broad, the non-compete would prevent you from working in games for 3 years, and termination rights are entirely one-sided. We strongly recommend negotiating these terms before signing.
Clause Analysis (4 flagged)
Intellectual Property Assignment
"The Receiving Party hereby irrevocably assigns to the Disclosing Party all right, title, and interest in any intellectual property... made by the Receiving Party during the term and for 24 months thereafter, whether or not related to the Disclosing Party's business."
This clause transfers ownership of ALL your creative work — including personal projects and games unrelated to this deal — to the publisher for 2 years after the agreement ends. This is extremely predatory.

"The Receiving Party agrees not to engage in the development, publishing, or sale of any video game or interactive entertainment product for 3 years following termination, worldwide."
A 3-year worldwide non-compete would prevent you from working in the entire game industry. This is unreasonably broad in scope, duration, and geography.

Unlock Full ReportOne-Sided Termination
"This Agreement may be terminated by the Disclosing Party at any time, for any reason. The Receiving Party may not terminate this Agreement."
Only the publisher can end the deal — you're locked in with no exit. Fair agreements allow both parties to terminate with reasonable notice.

"This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware."
Delaware is a standard, business-friendly jurisdiction. This clause is typical and generally not problematic for either party.
