Scoring System

Here at RandomNPC, we have a simple but strict rule about our reviews. A reviewer can only post a review if he or she completes the game — that is, reaches the ending (or the “good” ending that might change his or her opinion) and sees the credits. If a reviewer didn’t complete the game, he or she can post an impression of it instead. We do this because we believe in being thorough and fair, and we want to give our readers quality reviews they can trust.

For games with no ending, such as MMOs, we typically require 100 hours of gameplay, though there have been rare cases where we’ve essentially run out of content and explored all areas of the world and called that good enough.

Our Scale:
0/10- Abominable
1/10- Awful
2/10- Bad
3/10- Poor
4/10- Below Average
5/10- Average
6/10- Above Average
7/10- Good
8/10- Great
9/10- Excellent
10/10- Exceptional

Overall scores are not an average of subscores.
