Aggregate customer ratings are mostly in the higher star categories, with a smaller share of lower ratings. This is a positive overall signal but does not identify what buyers liked or disliked. For a game whose appeal depends on two-player tactical tile placement, the ratings alone cannot establish whether its pace or strategy suits a particular pair.
