One ranking built from 5 major year-end lists. Every list awards points by position — #1 earns 100, #2 earns 99, and so on — then each game’s points are averaged across all 5 lists to produce its Review Rank Score. A game ranked #1 everywhere would score a perfect 100.
Points follow position: pts = 101 − rank on each list. The Review Rank Score is a game’s total divided by the number of lists surveyed (5), so missing a list counts as zero — consensus beats a single high placement. Ties break by list appearances, then best single position. Positions were captured to each list’s published depth shown below. Games released outside 2019 that appeared inside longer eligibility windows keep their slot on the source list but are excluded here.
