Rating and Reviews (Monthly)
  

Chart showing the monthly evolution of Hero Generations: ReGen steam rating, positive and negative reviews.

With 89 reviews, Hero Generations: ReGen could be a small indie success if it didn't take too long to produce. The graph seems to be a long tailed distribution. That sometimes means that the marketing efforts were concentrated on the game launch, and that there was no major update or discounts after.

The median play time for the negative reviews is 2.2 times less than the median for positive reviews. A low negative review time (median : 137 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 ?).

The Players' feedback section might help understanding the issue.
