How this page counts

The hours
Half of its Steam reviewers had played 21 hours or less when they gave their verdict. The middle half sat between 8 hours and 49 hours. One bead is 1% of its Steam reviews, standing at the hours its author had played. Counted from about 310,000 Steam reviews, by the hours each author had played when they wrote theirs. It is not a time to beat.
The price
At Steam's US list price of $24.99, the typical player's 21 hours come to $1.19 an hour. Past the two-hour refund window, 98% of its Steam reviewers recommend it. The price is Steam's US list price for the game by itself: not a sale price, a bundle or what anyone paid. The hours are the ones its reviewers had played, not a time to beat.
Where players stop
Steam's global achievement stats count everyone who ever launched the game, people still playing included. They are not a finish rate. The filter is the steepest drop between two story achievements; the players who never reached the first one barely started, and are never the filter.
Everyone's copy
Counted from the Steam libraries read here, not from all of Steam's players.
