Chart showing the monthly evolution of Crystal Caves HD steam rating, positive and negative reviews.

This chart shows Crystal Caves HD's Steam rating and reviews from October 2020 to December 2023. Steam's rating oscillates between 96.7% (October 2020) and 99.1% (January 2023), with relatively small variations.

The 268 reviews Top 25% suggest that Crystal Caves HD might be a reasonable 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.
