The value story

The lowest price on record is $4.19, set in January 2019. 5 discounts in the 8 years on record. They run about 30 percent off, roughly 23 weeks apart.

On value it sits in the top 5 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 77 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 97 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Winkeltje: The Little Shop ($14.99, scores 76) beats it on value, while it beats Big Ambitions ($25.99, scores 67).

This site sampled 379 of its Steam-purchase reviews; none were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to September 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 86 percent of the 159 reviews written there were positive, against 93 percent overall, and those are 12 percent of everything written about it.
