Our Scoring Policy

When reviewing games here at GodisaGeek.com, we use a very simple 1-10 scale. We feel this particular scale is the simplest way to determine the quality level of the games we review on our publication.

When we award a game 10 that does not mean the game is perfect because, let’s face it, no game is perfect in every single way. There are always going to be minor issues or tiny faults, but does that mean a 10 should never be achievable? Our answer is a definite no.

We feel that the review scale of 1-10 is there to be used fully, and if a game cannot achieve a 10 (because perfection is not achievable) then the scale is, in itself, broken. Therefore when we issue a coveted 10/10 score we are saying that the game has been awarded the highest possible recommendation – that it is truly an outstanding game that defies genre.

In a similar manner, a 7/10 is not a low scoring game. A score of 5/10 means the game is average, and so on.

The image you see above is what the score section at the end of our reviews looks like. The number highlighted in solid black is the score we have awarded to the game. All these scores are final and are the choice of the team member who has written the review.
