Most distinctive niche

(?)

Among all this game's genres, this is the one where players have the most distinctive taste — they rate games very differently from the average Steam gamer, suggesting a more passionate, selective community. It's not about what the game is most tagged as — it's about which of its communities has the most opinionated audience.

Reviewer Playtime Distribution

Playtime at review time for 500 Steam reviewers — non-reviewing owners excluded.

Mean significantly exceeds median — a small group of highly dedicated players is pulling the average up. A passionate minority logs hundreds of hours while most players finish their run or the whole story and move on. Classic pattern for sandboxes, roguelikes, and competitive games with infinite depth — the 'superfan tail' inflates the mean.
