What is the Buddy Gap?

The Buddy Gap is the difference between the press score (average of all full reviews) and the community score on a 0–100 scale.

  • Positive (+15): Press rates higher → critic favourite
  • Negative (-20): Community rates higher → underrated
  • ±5: Press and community agree

Currently: Unknown (—/100)

At least two full reviews are needed for a controversy rating.
