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
  • Steam lists in-app purchases but we have no detail on them. Small caution applied.
Raising the score
ValueFree
Price per hour of game. It moves the score inside the ceiling reviews set
Holding it back
Reviews79% positive
Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones Scored as 78% after the small-sample adjustment
Reach350K+ owners
How many own it, by SteamSpy's estimate (an old snapshot). A free game has no price to weigh, so this is its value read
MonetizationIn-app purchases
Steam lists in-app purchases and nothing more is known, so a small haircut
For context
RefundsFree
A free game cannot be refunded, so the label never applies
AI contentNone disclosed
From the developer's own Steam disclosure. No disclosure is not proof of none, so it does not move the score

The drop-off

80% 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).
