Gamicality score

The average of the Metacritic and OpenCritic critic scores and the Steam player rating, out of 100. Each part links to where it comes from.

Playability, 1 to 5

Two halves. Runs today: can you buy it and start it on today’s machines? Design today: do the controls, menus, saving and pacing still feel good? Weak games are listed too, with a low score.

Fixes with sources
