Time Played

Chart displaying Wurm Unlimited percentiles of time played for positive, negative, and early access reviews.

This chart displays the time played in Wurm Unlimited, comparing positive and negative reviews. Notice how the time in game reaches a stellar 1125 hours in the 80th percentile.

The negative reviews play time is 172 times lower than the positive reviews median play time. A low negative review time (median : 124 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 Wurm Unlimited and decided to review it and get a refund under 2 hours. The Players' feedback section might give some insight about that.
