This donut graph displays the languages of Flashback's Steam reviews. The most popular language is English (47%), followed by Russian (17%). There is a nice diversity in the reviews, with 20 languages represented. The game is translated in 5 languages.

Time Played
This chart displays the time played in Flashback depending if the reviewer left a positive or a negative review. The time in game is acceptable, with 10 hours in the 80th percentile.
The median play time for the negative reviews is 7.9 times less than the median for positive reviews. A low negative review time (median : 47 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 Flashback and decided to review it and get a refund under 2 hours. The Players' feedback section might give some insight about that.
