What are the official Lichii links?
| Task | Original destination |
|---|---|
| Read the source and README | github.com/zortos293/Lichii |
| Download project builds | GitHub Releases |
| Compare community game reports | lichii.zortos.me |
| Read recent compatibility submissions | Official reports page |
| Search existing bugs | Repository issues |
The project README identifies the compatibility website and says downloads should come only from its repository’s releases. A site using the same project name or a similar domain is not automatically an official distribution channel.
Is this website the official project?
No. Lichii Emulator is an independent editorial guide. Its role is to explain platform choices, connect related setup and troubleshooting information, and link to original evidence. It is not affiliated with the Lichii project or Nintendo.
The project itself is also an independent fork, not a Nintendo product. The README describes its relationship to Eglantine, Eden, yuzu and Sudachi and says some inherited documentation and internal names remain.
What should you check before downloading?
- Confirm the repository owner and project name in the address bar.
- Open a release and read its notes instead of trusting only a download button on another site.
- Match the file to your OS and CPU architecture.
- Extract the complete archive and keep its files together.
- Treat system warnings as a reason to review the source and file, not as a routine instruction to disable protection.
The README warns that archives offered elsewhere are not built by the project and links a report of malware in a third-party distribution. This guide does not independently analyze every outside download. Its practical recommendation is to use the original source.
Is the emulator free?
The README states that Lichii is free and stays free. It describes voluntary donations, which do not purchase exclusive builds, early access, priority support or control over the project. This guide does not sell a “premium download” or special access to the same public files.
Games, keys and firmware are not bundled. Claims that a download automatically includes an entire game library should not be confused with what the original project distributes.
Where should you go next?
Use the download selector for platform-specific official links, setup guides for a first launch and compatibility reports to understand game-specific observations. If you already use Eden or Eglantine, read update and backup before experimenting with the shared data directories.
