Review Languages
This donut graph displays the languages of Kalaban's Steam reviews. The most popular language is English (65%), followed by Russian (11%).

The negative reviews play time is 1.8 times lower than the positive reviews median play time. A low negative review time (median : 108 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 Kalaban and decided to review it and get a refund under 2 hours. You could check if there is an explanation in the Players' feedback section.

These advantages and disadvantages are not meant to provide a fair assessment of the game, but to help developers identify potential improvements. The game's 62.5% rating Bottom 25% should be factored in during their evaluation.
