At 3rd-Phase Boss we employ the 100 point scale for our reviews. You might note that these scores are represented by coins and if you pay close attention, the grade of those coins is also a visual factor relative to the score awarded each game. We've chosen Gold, Silver, Opal and Bronze as our minerals. We decided to work to a 100 point scale due to the complexity of the review process in modern gaming. This allows us room to take into account the myriad factors of any given product under our analytical eye.
When reviewing content on 3rd-Phase Boss we look at three key factors: Creativity, Presentation and Execution. Each of those pillars is then broken down into other elements ranging from everything between writing and performances to the UI and UX aspects driven by the player, as well as everything in between.
We don’t take the process lightly, but need to reiterate that while subjective, the viewpoint of our reviewers is theirs, first and foremost, but in line with our own review methods and practices. You won’t always agree with our reviews or scores, but we ask that you respect our writers and this platform which is wholly independent and does not work to any element of ‘pay for comment’.
