Change of importance rating

I'd like to change the importance rating on the Video Games project for this page to Mid. However, the user IceWelder thinks it should remain at Low. My reasoning for it being Mid is that it has received many positive reviews and won five awards, one of which is a Game of The Year award. It's also been nominated for other awards. However, what IceWelder thinks is that while it has received many positive reviews, it isn't exactly critically acclaimed. I'd like to get a few more opinions for a consensus.

In my view, importance is more related to commercial success (or, failing that, cult fame and impact on later games) rather than the awards the game won. To me the one million sales figure is more pertinent here, but I believe that should qualify it to be Mid-importance. Those sales numbers are pretty rare for an indie game, with some AAA games falling short of it. In case it wasn't clear: I agree it should be Mid-importance. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 23:00, 28 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Importance has nothing to do with qualify or sales numbers. It's about impact. I don't see how this game has had any impact on video games as a whole. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:36, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The first sentence in the importance criteria is literally: "Achieved wide commercial success". ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 19:20, 11 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Genre

I don't know if it is only just a card game, it is also a puzzle game, metafictional mystery game, rpg... whatever, idk. like a youtuber said: All in all, the goal of the game has morphed… I was no longer playing just baseball, now I was playing some bizarre baseball/chess crossover, where doing something strangely specific like pulling off a bunt with no outs in the 3rd inning, got me another rook and an extra turn.
