Rating and Reviews (Monthly)
  

Chart showing the monthly evolution of Hellenica steam rating, positive and negative reviews.

This chart shows Hellenica's Steam rating and reviews from January 2017 to July 2022. Steam's rating is in a range going from 72.7% (January 2017) to 59.4% (December 2017).

With its 48 reviews, Hellenica might be a success for a hobbyist, or a small indie success if it was made in a short amount of time. The chart looks like a long tail distribution, which sometimes means that the marketing was concentrated on the game launch and then stopped, and that no major update or discounts followed.

This doughnut chart shows Hellenica's review languages. The most popular language is English (90%), followed by Japanese (2%).

Having more translations could have boosted the game's popularity.

Time Played

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

This chart displays the number of hours played in Hellenica depending if the reviewer left a positive or a negative review. The time played is adequate, reaching 19 hours in the 80th percentile.

The median play time for the negative reviews is 16 times less than the median for positive reviews. 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 ?). It can also mean that some players were somehow offended by Hellenica and decided to review it and get a refund under 2 hours. The Players' feedback section might help understanding the issue.
