AppCourt loves to do reviews and we work hard to make sure our reviews help others to make informed decisions about different apps. We rate apps on a 0 – 5 star rating scale.

Below describes what each rating means:

5.0 – Masterpiece
The pinnacle of gaming, a masterpiece may not be flawless, but it is so exceptional that it is hard to imagine a game being better. At the time of its release, this game is the not just the best being offered, but better than we could have expected.

4.0/4.5 – Amazing
One of the best games out there. When this generation of games ends, people will look back and say, “This was one of the best games made.” It might have a few flaws, but this is a must-buy.

3.0/3.5 – Good
Sure, there are some issues, but the overall experience is still good enough to recommend. Maybe it lacks ambition or it’s repetitive or has too many technical glitches, but we had fun playing it nonetheless and think you will too.

2.0/2.5 – Mediocre
This game is on the cusp of being bad. That means that there are one or two good things about it, but an equal if not greater number of issues present. If the game sounds interesting, you might want to give it a try, but don’t expect to be wowed.

1.0/1.5 – Bad
Something went wrong during development. There’s nothing worse than a game that ends up as “bad” on our scale, because it usually means there was potential that the game design couldn’t live up to.

0/0.5 – Awful
Bad concept, severe technical flaws, terrible design — these are just some of the characteristics of an awful game. Getting to the end just might be impossible, because the experience is just so terrible.
