# Built-in effects list

Here is the default/built-in database we created, which is already available (import the "Samples" folder!) and contains many effects ready to use in your games.

{% hint style="info" %}
You can also create your own effects anytime!

* [Create your own effects](/text-animator-unity/customization/create-your-own-effects.md)
* [Writing Custom Effects (C#)](/text-animator-unity/writing-custom-classes/writing-custom-effects-c.md)
  {% endhint %}

{% hint style="success" %}
Since Text Animator for Unity 3.0, any effect can be played as an Appearance, Persistant and Disappearance, and you can also play them once or based on other conditions!
{% endhint %}

You can also use [Modifiers](/text-animator-unity/effects/how-to-edit-effects/modifiers.md), which let you change the characteristics of your Behavior effects individually.
