Rating and Reviews (Monthly)
This graph shows Boomerang X's Steam rating and reviews between July 2021 and December 2023. Steam's rating oscillates between 93.9% (August 2021) and 95.9% (July 2022), with relatively small variations.
With 944 reviews Top 15%, Boomerang X could be an indie success or even a small AAA success. The chart is compatible with a long tailed distribution, which suggests there was a good visibility at launch but that it was not followed by significant updates or discounts.
Review Languages
This donut chart displays the languages of Boomerang X's reviewers. The most popular language is English (82%), followed by Simplified Chinese (3%). There is a healthy diversity in the review languages, with 16 different languages represented. The game has been translated in 10 languages.
Time Played
This chart displays the time players have spent in Boomerang X, showing a comparison between positive and negative reviews. The time in game is acceptable, with 7 hours in the 80th percentile.
The median play time for the negative reviews is 3.1 times less than the median for positive reviews. A low negative review time (median : 72 minutes) can mean that the game crashes on some systems or that the type of gameplay was not completely clear to the players (Is the game unmistakably explained on the Steam Store ?). It is also possible that players were otherwise displeased by Boomerang X and decided to review it and get a refund under 2 hours. The Players' feedback section might give some insight about that.
