This chart shows Magic Potion Explorer's Steam rating and reviews from March 2016 to October 2023. Steam's rating is in a range going from 47.9% (March 2017) to 55.9% (October 2023).

With 93 reviews, Magic Potion Explorer might be a minor indie success if it was made quickly. The chart is compatible with a long tailed distribution, which suggests there was a good visibility at launch but that it was not followed by significant updates or discounts.

Time Played

Chart displaying Magic Potion Explorer percentiles of time played for positive, negative, and early access reviews.

This chart displays the number of hours played in Magic Potion Explorer, showing a comparison between positive and negative reviews. The time in game is acceptable, with 8 hours in the 80th percentile.

The median play time for the negative reviews is 2.5 times less than the median for positive reviews. A low negative review time (median : 114 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 Magic Potion Explorer and decided to review it and get a refund under 2 hours. The Players' feedback section might give some insight about that.
