Review Languages
This donut graph displays the languages of Darkstone's Steam reviews. The most popular language is English (61%), followed by French (7%).

Time Played
This chart displays the time played in Darkstone, comparing positive and negative reviews. The time played is adequate, reaching 29 hours in the 80th percentile.
The median play time for the negative reviews is 15 times less than the median for positive reviews. A low negative review time (median : 46 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 Darkstone and decided to review it and get a refund under 2 hours. The Players' feedback section might help understanding the issue.
