This game score does not translate into review score directly, but rather is compared to your previous high score (read next paragraph for details) to calculate your review score. Therefore, failing even one quality check can lower your game score significantly.

All those modifiers are usually capped at a value of around 1, and have lowest values of around 0.6. The Game score is a hidden value you can only see by Modding (do not confuse it with the review score you see), is basically the sum of your Design + Tech, divided by a modifier based on game size (this compensates for the fact that bigger games take longer to develop and accumulate more points) and then multiplied by several quality modifiers. However, during the game development your actions do not influence your review score directly, but rather, your game score. Typically, the goal of game development is to get a high review score (preferably 9.5+). This article aims to provide the information needed to create good quality games.

In Game Dev Tycoon there are a lot of factors that go into creating a high quality game.
