How Steam assigns review scores
Steam assigns scores based on the percentage of positive reviews and the total number of reviews. A game needs at least 10 reviews to receive a score.
| % Positive | Min. Reviews | Score |
|---|---|---|
| 95–100% | 500+ | Overwhelmingly Positive |
| 85–100% | 50+ | Very Positive |
| 80–100% | 10+ | Positive |
| 70–79% | 10+ | Mostly Positive |
| 40–69% | 10+ | Mixed |
| 20–39% | 10+ | Mostly Negative |
| 0–19% | 10+ | Negative |
| 0–19% | 50+ | Very Negative |
| 0–19% | 500+ | Overwhelmingly Negative |
