Review Languages
This donut graph displays the languages of Darwinia's Steam reviews. The most popular language is English (76%), followed by Russian (6%). There is a healthy diversity in the review languages, with 19 different languages represented. The game is translated in 5 languages. Considering that, unless the game is text-heavy, adding translations is not a lot of work compared to making a game, it is often a good idea to translate the game in many languages.
Time Played
This chart displays the number of hours played in Darwinia depending if the reviewer left a positive or a negative review. The time in game is not bad at all, with 20 hours in the 80th percentile.
The median play time for the negative reviews is 23 times less than the median for positive reviews. A low negative review time (median : 30 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 Darwinia and decided to review it and get a refund under 2 hours. The Players' feedback section might give some insight about that.
