How the recommendation is formed
This recommendation is computed from measured Steam reviews, patch activity and price history using fixed, public rules. It has not been reviewed by an editor. Rules: Fewer than 500 Steam reviews → Insufficient evidence. Latest-review sample (≥50) below 65% positive and 10+ points under the all-time score → Wait for fixes. All-time score below 40% positive → Not for you. Score 80%+ and a good price (free, deep discount, near a recorded low) → Buy now; a good score at a price that has been much lower → Buy on sale; otherwise Worth considering. An exceptional score (92%+) at a fair price (little to gain by waiting) also → Buy now. Free-to-play games: unless one of the rules above (Insufficient evidence, Wait for fixes, Not for you) applies, the verdict is Free to play — the question is whether to try it, not whether to buy it. Score 40–79% (mixed to positive) → Worth considering at a good price, otherwise Buy on sale. Patch freshness: a Buy now is downgraded to Worth considering when the last recognised patch is over 180 days old AND the game is online-only (no single-player mode, so updates matter) or recent reviews are 10+ points under the all-time score. For Wait for fixes, a patch within 30 days means recent reviews may not reflect it yet; none for 180+ days means a fix may not be coming. An old patch alone never lowers a verdict, and an unrecognised patch history is never treated as stale. Confidence counts available evidence (review volume, recent sample, price history, patch feed) and never exceeds Medium without editor review. The Steam price is compared with the lowest price ever seen on Steam (or, if unknown, the lowest at any tracked store). Price signal: within 5% of the all-time low, within 10% of the 12-month low, or 50%+ off → good. If waiting could save under 25% or under $5 → fair (little to gain). Otherwise: on sale but cheaper before, or never discounted beyond 30% → fair; no sale and much cheaper before → wait.
