Rating and Reviews (Monthly)
This chart shows Forgotten Fields's Steam rating and reviews from April 2021 to September 2023. Steam's rating is varying from 96.4% (April 2021) to 87.9% (July 2023).
Considering the 85 reviews, and if it didn't take too long to make the game, Forgotten Fields could be a small indie success. The graph seems to be a long tailed distribution. That sometimes means that the marketing efforts were concentrated on the game launch, and that there was no major update or discounts after.
Review Languages
This doughnut graph shows Forgotten Fields's reviewers languages. The most popular language is English (79%), followed by Simplified Chinese (6%). There is a nice diversity in the reviews, with 13 languages represented. The game has been translated in only one language (English), it's always good to have more translations to access other markets.
Time Played
This chart displays the time played in Forgotten Fields depending if the reviewer left a positive or a negative review. The time played is decent, reaching 5 hours in the 80th percentile.
The negative reviews play time is 4.2 times lower than the positive reviews median play time. A low negative review time (median : 51 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 Forgotten Fields and decided to review it and get a refund under 2 hours. The Players' feedback section might give some insight about that.

The intention behind these pros & cons isn't to establish a balanced evaluation of the game, but rather to assist developers in identifying enhancement opportunities. The game's 82.5% rating should be factored in during their evaluation.
Take into account that list was generated using AI on a small sample of Forgotten Fields's Steam review data, it is not meant to be exhaustive. You don't always need to solve every issue. What some players hate might be what your fanbase loves.
