More about Folklore Hunter
Of the 597 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 25 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to September 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 9 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 795 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 152 have a larger share. The typical game sits near 5 in 1,000, so the score docks it. 5 of the 25 refunded reviewers were past Valve's two-hour window when they wrote the review. Inside the two-hour refund window, 50 percent of the 327 reviews written there were positive, against 74 percent overall, and those are 27 percent of everything written about it.
