Rating and Reviews (Monthly)
  

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

This graph shows Battle Islands's Steam rating and reviews between August 2014 and December 2023. Steam's rating is in a narrow range going from 75.9% (May 2023) to 80.3% (November 2014).

Battle Islands is an AAA level success, with 3.4K reviews Top 10%. The chart suggests a long tail distribution, which could mean that the game was promoted at laucnch but that there were no more marketing, update or major discounts after that point.

Review Languages
 

Donut graph showing review languages for Battle Islands and the proportion of players they represent.

This donut graph displays the languages of Battle Islands's Steam reviews. The most popular language is English (44%), followed by Russian (8%). There is a healthy diversity in the review languages, with 27 different languages represented. The game is translated in 7 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

Chart displaying Battle Islands percentiles of time played for positive, negative, and early access reviews.

This chart displays the number of hours played in Battle Islands depending if the reviewer left a positive or a negative review. The time in game is outstanding, with 55 hours in the 80th percentile.

The median play time for the negative reviews is 6.8 times less than the median for positive reviews. A low negative review time (median : 134 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 Battle Islands and decided to review it and get a refund under 2 hours. The Players' feedback section might give some insight about that.
