Holds steady

How this is counted

Half of its Steam reviewers had played 2.5 hours or less when they gave their verdict. The middle half sat between 45 minutes and 6.5 hours.

One token is 1% of its Steam reviews, standing at the hours its author had played. Counted from about 3,670 Steam reviews, by the hours each author had played when they wrote theirs. It is not a time to beat.

It holds steady: between 83% and 87% recommend it at every stage past the first two hours.

Would you like Simply Chess?

Give the ball your Steam profile link or name. It reads the games you own most like Simply Chess, how long each held you against the typical player, and how long Simply Chess would take you. Public profiles only. No account needed, and no library is saved.

How this is counted

It reads how long you tend to stay: across every game you've played whose typical hours it knows (free games left out), how often you went past the typical player and how often you left before half their hours. It glows when you often stay past them, dims when you often leave early, and needs five played games to read at all. Then it shows the games you own most like this one, by the same measure as the shelf of games like it, each with your hours against the typical player's.

Why not a forecast for this game: on 36,766 Steam libraries, how a player did on games like one told little beyond how long they stay in games at all, so those games are shown as evidence and never scored. Nothing of the library is kept.
