This chart shows JARS's Steam rating and reviews from October 2021 to December 2023. Steam's rating is varying from 94.7% (October 2021) to 69.6% (August 2023).
With 86 reviews, JARS could be a small indie success if it didn't take too long to produce. 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.

Time Played
This chart displays the time played in JARS, comparing positive and negative reviews. The time played is decent, reaching 10 hours in the 80th percentile.
The negative reviews play time is 2.7 times lower than the positive reviews median play time. A low negative review time (median : 96 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 JARS and decided to review it and get a refund under 2 hours. The Players' feedback section might help understanding the issue.

It's important to understand that this list of positives and negatives is not an unbiased evaluation of the game. Its purpose is to support developers in understanding what their players want. The game's 77.5% rating should be factored in during their evaluation.
Take into account that list was generated using AI on a small sample of JARS's Steam review data, it is not meant to be exhaustive. Additionally, remember that not all issues need to be fixed, sometimes the best approach is to communicate better to manage the player's expectations.
