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

What we assumed
  • How long it takes to beat isn't in our data. The score is docked for the missing length.
Raising the score
MonetizationNone
Checked: no in-game purchases or loot boxes. That earns a small credit unless Steam lists in-app purchases
Holding it back
Reviews81% positive
Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones
Refunds47 of 712 reviews
Well above the typical game's share of reviews from refunded buyers, so the score takes a small dock
Length unknownNo verified $/hr
No length in our data yet, so the biggest driver can't be verified. A heavy dock until it is
For context
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 Angels Fall First

Of the 712 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 47 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to October 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 9 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 1,422 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 64 have a larger share. The typical game sits near 5 in 1,000, so the score docks it. 3 of the 47 refunded reviewers were past Valve's two-hour window when they wrote the review. Inside the two-hour refund window, 56 percent of the 1,065 reviews written there were positive, against 81 percent overall, and those are 28 percent of everything written about it.

The drop-off

34% start to <1% rarest
050100rarestfirst achievement

No achievement in this game marks the ending, so there is no finish rate. The curve runs from the most-unlocked achievement to the rarest, and its shape is where players stop. Steam global achievements

No data upstream: length (HowLongToBeat), critic score (Metacritic).
