Time Played

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 : 13 hours) could mean that Iwaihime crashes after a while or becomes too repetitive or difficult in the end.
