  1. Performance and stutter34 of 300 (11%)

    Good game but forcing 60 fps on my $1200 monitor just felt awful

    Steam review, 9 December 2025 · 26 hours played · 4 readers marked it helpful

    For some reason the game has a 60 fps cap?

    Steam review, 28 June 2025 · 15 hours played · 4 readers marked it helpful
  2. Crashes and freezes12 of 300 (4%)

    Crashes repeatedly on Steam Deck, should not have a Verified badge.

    Steam review, 10 December 2025 · 21 hours played · 3 readers marked it helpful

    I was really looking forward to finally trying these games but it seems like they are built around a hard lock to 60fps.

A further 7 reviews call the game buggy or broken without saying how, which is why they are counted separately rather than assigned to a theme. Counted by keyword across review text, so a review discussing two problems is counted under both. Read the reviews yourself.
