The median play time for the negative reviews is 4.7 times less than the median for positive reviews. A low negative review time (median : 42 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 Destropolis 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.
