The negative reviews play time is 2.8 times lower than the positive reviews median play time. When the negative review time is low (median : 41 minutes), it can be a sign that the game crashes on some systems or that players misunderstood the nature of the game (Does the Steam page clearly explain it, with gifs and a gameplay video ?).

The Players' feedback section might give some insight about that.
