The value story

The lowest price on record is $2.99, set in December 2025. It has been discounted 48 times in the 5 years tracked here, typically at 66 percent off, with about 6 weeks between sales.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 9 percent on value. It is pricier than 87 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 90 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Rubber Bandits ($2.49, scores 62) beats it on value, while it beats Golf Gang ($9.99, scores 55).

This site sampled 421 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 2 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written August 2021 to September 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 79 percent of the 319 reviews written there were positive, against 86 percent overall, and those are 38 percent of everything written about it.

HowLongToBeat players log 2.8 hours as a typical playtime, and completionists log 9, 3.3 times as much.

At 2.8 hours it is a handheld-sized game, and Valve rates it Deck Verified.
