A sophisticated shooter laced with gallows humor. Killing Time is no shallow grave. Its depth is well-conceived. Puzzle solving and strategic thinking are placed at a premium.

Time Played

Chart displaying Killing Time percentiles of time played for positive, negative, and early access reviews.

This chart displays the time players have spent in Killing Time, comparing positive and negative reviews. The time in game is acceptable, with 12 hours in the 80th percentile.

The median play time for the negative reviews is 5.5 times less than the median for positive reviews. A low negative review time (median : 64 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 Killing Time and decided to review it and get a refund under 2 hours. The Players' feedback section might help understanding the issue.
