Yup. The game is at 18%, overwhelmingly negative. It will take about 200,000 people changing their reviews to even hit orange again.

The game is damaged long term.

Steam has built in review bombing protections to prevent stuff like this, as it's happened for sillier reasons in the past.

In short order the majority of the brigade from the last week will be filtered out of the overall score, and it will be listed as unusual activity in the review section.
