Rating and Reviews (Monthly)
  

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

This chart shows Night Lights's Steam rating and reviews from June 2019 to December 2023. Steam's rating is varying from 100% (June 2019) to 88.3% (October 2023).

Considering the 62 reviews, and if it didn't take too long to make the game, Night Lights could be a small indie success. 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.
