The reviewer view for Hot Plates is based on an identified sample of public reviewers. Player, follower, and wishlist geography are directional models that use public reviewer geography and available game-level signals; they are not exact country-by-country account counts.
Use the tabs to compare relative geographic shares and check each view's confidence label. Modeled percentages should be treated as directional context, especially when the identified reviewer sample is small or contains unknown locations.
