Feedback for reviewers

Our reviewers normally take quite some time to analyze the games and provide helpful comments and corrections. Nearly all of them are happy if you make the effort to value their work by giving some feedback to them as well. As soon as a game is reviewed you can leave comments below the game analysis.

In addition to this there is the possibility to rate reviews on a scale from 1 to 5 stars in the game description box at the top of the page. The following guidelines shall serve as an orientation for your evaluations.
