The value story
The lowest price on record is $1.99, set in March 2023. Its cuts run 90 percent off as a rule. There have been 44 in the 7 years tracked, about 7 weeks apart.
It is pricier than 92 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 99 percent. Men of War: Assault Squad 2 ($29.99, scores 85) outscores it, and so does First Strike ($11.99, scores 29). Both sit among its closest neighbours.
41 on Metacritic, 26 percent from players. A gap this way round is usually launch damage or a slow decline.
Of the 665 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 12 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to August 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 8 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 2,814 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 461 have a larger share. Inside the two-hour refund window, 13 percent of the 662 reviews written there were positive, against 26 percent overall, and those are 58 percent of everything written about it.
