What drives the score

How to read this

Grades run S to D, read from the buyer's side. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. How the grades work

What we assumed
  • How long it takes to beat isn't in our data. We scored it as a typical Strategy game (about 8 hours) and docked the score for the missing length.

Reviews69% positive
Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones
Length unknownNo verified $/hr
No length in our data yet, so the biggest driver can't be verified. A heavy dock until it is
For context
MonetizationNot known
No monetization record for this game, so nothing is assumed either way
Refunds9 of 800 reviews
Steam-purchase reviews sampled whose writer refunded the game. Nothing is docked
AI contentNone disclosed

The value story

Across all 51 discounts in the 5 years tracked, the median cut is 60 percent, about 5 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 11 days ago.

It is pricier than 90 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 71 percent. The games it most resembles do better on the same math. Northgard: Definitive Edition ($34.99, scores 72) and Kingdoms Reborn ($19.99, scores 62) both outscore it.
