Reviews from people who finish the game
Slot Three (sample) is a small, reader-funded games site. Four reviewers, one news editor and a lot of save files.
A games site for people with limited evenings
Most of our readers play a few hours a week. They want to know if a game respects that time before they spend money on it (sample).
So every review shows how long we played and how far we got. If a game takes 60 hours to get good, we say so. If it is over in six and worth every minute, we say that too.
