Games are getting shorter: Cribbage site researches computer game challenges

Most of the top ten games in a study of time-to-complete suggest that games released in or before 2010 tend to take longer than more recent games.

Games without online multiplayer also tend to take a bit longer as well.

The research was done by Cribbage Online, which pulled the data from a database of 60,000 console and PC games, with an average time for users with a 100% completion of the game. 

A spokesperson for the site said;

This study shows that gamers are not only interested in completing games but are also dedicated to achieving even the most challenging goals within them. It’s encouraging to see that the gaming industry provides such engaging and immersive experiences that capture the attention and determination of players.

As video games continue to evolve, it’s exciting to see how they can continue offering players new and engaging experiences. This study’s findings show the gaming community’s strength and passions.”
