What drives the score

How to read this

Grades run S to D, read from the buyer's side. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. How the grades work

Holding it back
Value$7.13/hr
Price per hour of game. It moves the score inside the ceiling reviews set
Reviews80% positive
Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones Scored as 78% after the small-sample adjustment
Refunds6 of 209 reviews
Well above the typical game's share of reviews from refunded buyers, so the score takes a small dock
For context
MonetizationNot known
No monetization record for this game, so nothing is assumed either way
AI contentNone disclosed
From the developer's own Steam disclosure. No disclosure is not proof of none, so it does not move the score

More about Evil Holiday

6 of the 209 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written November 2024 to August 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 9 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 693 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 23 have a larger share. The typical game sits near 5 in 1,000, so the score docks it. 1 of the 6 refunded reviewers was past Valve's two-hour window when they wrote the review. Inside the two-hour refund window, 79 percent of the 187 reviews written there were positive, against 80 percent overall, and those are 89 percent of everything written about it.

No data upstream: critic score (Metacritic), achievement curve (Steam global achievements).
