Rating and Reviews (Monthly)
  

Chart showing the monthly evolution of Skeleton Crew steam rating, positive and negative reviews.

This graph shows Skeleton Crew's Steam rating and reviews between June 2022 and December 2023. Steam's rating oscillates between 69.5% (June 2022) and 73.6% (December 2023), with relatively small variations.

With 38 reviews, Skeleton Crew could be a success for a hobbyist, or a small indie success if it didn't take too long to produce. The chart looks like a long tail distribution, which sometimes means that the marketing was concentrated on the game launch and then stopped, and that no major update or discounts followed.

Review Languages

This donut chart displays the languages of Skeleton Crew's reviewers. The most popular language is English (55%), followed by Simplified Chinese (11%). There is diversity in the review languages, with 9 languages represented. The game has only one translation (English), it could have been more popular if it was translated in more languages.

Time Played

Chart displaying Skeleton Crew percentiles of time played for positive, negative, and early access reviews.

This chart displays the time players have spent in Skeleton Crew, showing a comparison between positive and negative reviews. The time played is decent, reaching 14 hours in the 80th percentile.

The negative reviews play time is 3 times lower than the positive reviews median play time. When the negative review time is low (median : 80 minutes), it can be a sign that the game crashes on some systems or that players misunderstood the nature of the game (Does the Steam page clearly explain it, with gifs and a gameplay video ?). It can also mean that some players were somehow offended by Skeleton Crew and decided to review it and get a refund under 2 hours. You could check if there is an explanation in the Players' feedback section.
