That's the thing, though: because we're just trying to satisfy an algorithm, it really doesn't matter what you write. I always just tell people they can leave a review that just says "Game is really cool, I like the dialog" or whatever, and that counts.
I think a lot of people feel pressure to say something thoughtful about a game, but it's really not necessary. And as far as I'm concerned, knowing that they played it and liked it is plenty enough for me. I literally only care about Steam reviews because of the algorithm deciding how many people get to see my game at all.

I actually just noticed one of my friends wishlisted the game. Wishlisting also helps with the algorithm too, right?
Either way, I'm gonna go buy a copy for her.
Hot dang, thanks!
Wishlisting does help, yeah. Though it's much more important before a game releases.
Let me know what she thinks if she plays it!
BRB, gonna dash off some quick reviews for, like, all of the indie games I've enjoyed.
