Chart showing the monthly evolution of SantaCraft steam rating, positive and negative reviews.

This graph shows SantaCraft's Steam rating and reviews between December 2020 and December 2023. Steam's rating oscillates between 100% (December 2020) and 98% (July 2021), with relatively small variations.

With 93 reviews, SantaCraft might be a minor indie success if it was made quickly. The chart looks like a long tail distribution, which sometimes means that the marketing was concentrated on the game launch and then stopped, and that no major update or discounts followed.
