How this score was computed
The VGC Score is a weighted blend on a press-comparable 0-100 quality scale. Steam approval rates are first calibrated (95% positive on Steam ≈ 89.5 quality, since Steam approval skews high). Press and tracked creator reviews each count ~2x a player review and share one cap against player evidence (creator buy/skip calls pool into an approval rate, calibrated like Steam approval); all-time sentiment is capped and halved (it's context, not verdict); reviews of the current build carry the most weight when a fresh patch anchors the window; and a 'typical game' prior keeps small samples from pegging the scale. Because press reviews and Metacritic user aggregates describe the launch build, their weight decays as the game ages (3-year half-life after a 1-year grace). That's how a game that launched rough can outgrow its old reception once updates win players over. Reviews under 2h playtime (the refund window), non-Steam activations, and free copies are downweighted.
| Component | Positive | Quality (0-100) | Weight (pseudo-reviews) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Press reviews (OpenCritic) | – | 77 | 6 |
| All-time Steam reviews | 96% | 91 | 1000 |
| Metacritic user ratings | – | – | 0 |
| Post-patch Steam reviews (trust-weighted) | 100% | 97 | 2 |
| Calibration prior (typical game) | – | 72 | 50 |
Acclaim gate: the raw blend lands at 90.4, but scores above 88 must be earned in front of a mass audience; this verdict rests on 2,084 player reviews, a largely self-selected fanbase. As more players weigh in, the ceiling rises (full scale unlocks at 100,000 reviews).

“Even though it's a cute game, My Brother Rabbit is short. After three hours or so the end credits roll.”

“My Brother Rabbit is a great little hidden object adventure that tells an emotional story with style and sensitivity. Its world is a pleasure to explore and there is a nice balance between static screen exploration and logic puzzles. It is clear that Artifex Mundi are experts in their field, and this would be the perfect introduction to the genre or gaming more generally. It would certainly work to counteract the public perception that gaming is all guns and swearing teenagers. While clearly a simple game, it deserves to be played by more than the usual genre fans. It doesn't outstay its welcome, its full of lovely touches and is a great example of a nice game. Here's hoping that, like the creature in its title, My Brother Rabbit will multiply and more such heartwarming titles will hop onto the scene.”

“The new installment from the polish studio Artifex Mundi is a real treat for the eye. But despite its appealing visuals, My Brother Rabbit fails to deliver a thrilling experience over time. It does not really matter actually as the game can be enjoyed in a few amount of time (three or four hours).”

“Overall, I think this is a fantastic and charming short game, which you can easily get 2 to 3 hours of joy out of, and it's definitely worth picking up for the experience!”

“My Brother Rabbit’s dual story offers a charming, warm and somewhat emotional adventure. Special mention goes to the game’s gorgeously drawn artwork, together with its wonderful soundtrack. It’s easily the most distinct point-and-click game that we’ve seen from Artifex Mundi so far, and despite its lack of difficulty, it’s a journey worth taking, one that’s filled with character and splendor throughout. ”

“Visually beautiful, My Brother Rabbit is a mix of a puzzles story and a deep tale of sickness in a child. Six hours of sensations and 2D exploration.”

“My Brother Rabbit is a moving story of loving brother and sick sister. It's simple, but well portrayed, metaphor of sibling's love. Too straightforward for an adult, but perfect for children.”

“This is one adventure you’ll want to see through to the end, even if the seek-and-fun gameplay can get a little irritating.”
