Summary

Craftopia has a TrueGG Rating of 35.6%: the positive share among 253 reviews written in the last 180 days by players with 5+ hours. That is 40.3 points below Steam's overall 75.9%, so players who really play the current version are harsher than the headline number suggests (all time: 79.4%).

Reviews written under 2 hours make up 15% of the total, and only 53% of them are positive. Some players bounce off early, but those who get past the opening rate it higher. Steam accepts refund requests within 2 hours of play and 14 days of purchase.

Negative reviews most often mention boredom. Positive reviews praise how fun it feels and freedom.

Among Japanese-language reviews, the TrueGG Rating is 66.3%, 30.7 points above all languages.

Re-weighting reviews by trust signals (playtime, length, how the game was obtained) barely changes the rating (74.8% adjusted), so Steam's number is not noticeably distorted by key giveaways or throwaway reviews.

All figures come from Steam's public review counts, and topics are counted with our published dictionary (no AI). Data as of 2026-10-19.

Why it is rated this way

What drives the rating

Complaints center on the game's design (Boring / repetitive). These rarely change with updates, so the rating likely reflects the game itself. Judge by whether it suits you.
