Time Played
This chart displays the number of hours played in Serious Sam: Tormental, showing a comparison between positive and negative reviews. You can also see the reviews during the Early Access phase. The time in game is not bad at all, with 21 hours in the 80th percentile.
The median play time for the negative reviews is 3.2 times less than the median for positive reviews. When the negative review time is low (median : 119 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 Serious Sam: Tormental and decided to review it and get a refund under 2 hours. The Players' feedback section might help understanding the issue.
