A few days ago, I wrote about the odd story of Omelet You Cook, a highly rated cooking roguelike that lost a streak of over 500 100% positive Steam user reviews to a random person who openly wanted "to be different" and negative despite loving the game. Its co-developer, Dan Schumacher, said at the time that there was only one game on Steam with more reviews than Omelet You Cook and a totally perfect score. The cogs of Steam fascinate me, so I needed to know what it was.
So, I asked. As someone who keeps tabs on aggregates like SteamDB and Steam 250, I also compared Schumacher's findings – collected "a bit obsessively," he says – against my own. And according to every last filter and algorithm that I could think to check, backed by search data straight from Valve and tabulated by third parties, the most-reviewed game on Steam with a truly 100% perfect score is a $5, Japanese-only anime FPS called Shooters, Ready!.
Shooters, Ready! feels like the video game equivalent of a classic genre of anime: cute girls doing cute things. It is, from what I've gathered from the trailer and machine-translated Steam page, about high school-age girls participating in competitive target shooting. Judging from the (English) videos I've seen online, a lot of people treat it as an aim trainer with a little more game on its bones.
You run through a room and shoot targets with non-lethal guns, like Keanu Reeves training for John Wick, but with the addition of an anime girl casting the event from the bottom-left corner, which makes all the difference. I also really like the idea of the guns having highly noticeable recoil because they're in the hands of a high school girl – a demographic not known for ballistics-ready wrists – and not John Wick.
It's a cute, short, simple, anime, $5, and reportedly extremely fun game, so it's not surprising to see it do well among PC gamers. But according to every metric I could dig up, it is a rare outlier with 584 100% positive user reviews accrued since launch on March 27, 2025.
Lots of Steam games have perfect reviews, but most of them only have a handful of reviews. More to the point, all of them apparently have fewer reviews than Shooters, Ready! – and its review count was just 576 when I first gained this admittedly useless knowledge a few days ago. It's still going.
A blank search on Steam suggests as much. Run a search with no topic, enable every language for the results, and filter by user reviews. Shooters, Ready! ranks at the top every time, just above review heavyweights that I already knew to be massively popular and well-received – HoloLive roguelike HoloCure, for instance, or the delightful A Short Hike from Adam Gryu.
I looked at dozens and dozens of games in these rankings, and in multiple charts for the best-reviewed Steam games of all time, and I couldn't find anything that has a larger or even comparable volume of reviews and 100% positivity. There are a ton of 99% and 98% hits with tens of thousands of reviews, but just as a function of scale, you're inevitably going to get some negative feedback with an audience that size. A 100% score is unheard of even for the best games of all time. Even 584 flawless reviews is impressive.
This makes it especially wild to think that what seems to be the current highest-rated game on Steam came out this year, and is the first and only game from its creator, おこめたべたべず, or at least its first Steam release.
With inherently limited data, I can't with total confidence confirm that this game is the numerical king of Steam – and obviously a zillion games have way more reviews with impressive scores – but hey, I had to do something productive with the rabbit hole I just went down.
