Time Played

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

This chart displays the time played in Stonefly depending if the reviewer left a positive or a negative review. The time played is decent, reaching 11 hours in the 80th percentile.

The median play time for the negative reviews is similar to the median for positive reviews, hinting that there is no significant difference in the player's experience and that is more a question of personal taste. A high negative review play time (median : 5 hours) could mean that Stonefly crashes after a while or becomes too repetitive or difficult in the end. The Players' feedback section might give some insight about that.
