Overrated 400 positive and 400 negative reviews analyzed · data as of 2026-10-12
Summary
The adjusted rating for Unturned is 90.6% (95% range 90.2–91.0%), in line with the official 91.0% on Steam. It is based on 400 positive and 400 negative reviews weighted by trust. Verdict: "Overrated" (the adjusted rating is 70% or higher, but the positive reviews carry low average trust).
Average trust is 0.70 for positive and 0.73 for negative reviews, but the gap is too small to move the official rating much. The most common discount factor is very short reviews, at 55% of all reviews.
The monthly history (149 months) has no month where volume and negative share jumped together. The rating does not appear to be driven by a single episode.
The last 180 days show 85.3%, 5.7 points below the all-time figure. Sentiment over the past six months is weaker.
Japanese-language reviews (875) show 89.1%, close to the overall rating.
The adjusted rating estimates trust from how reviews are written; it does not judge any individual review as fake. Data as of 2026-10-12.
