What drives the score
How to read this
Every input gets a grade, S to D, read from the buyer's side. The score is multiplicative, so an input only counts as raising when it sits near the top of its own scale. Anything with real room left is holding the score back, because that room is the gap to 100. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. The exact weights stay secret.
The value story
June 2023 is where it bottomed out, at $6.49. Its cuts run 50 percent off as a rule. There have been 50 in the 7 years tracked, about 6 weeks apart. Today it is at full price. The last sale was about 5 weeks ago, and on this game's rhythm the next one tends to arrive within 6 weeks.
On value it sits in the top 19 percent of its genre. It is better reviewed than 82 percent of its genre. It outscores the games it most resembles, including Scorn ($3.99, scores 49) and Plug & Play ($3.99, scores 35).
This site sampled 800 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 10 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written September 2024 to September 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 86 percent of the 3,886 reviews written there were positive, against 89 percent overall, and those are 21 percent of everything written about it.

What players say
some of you may think this game is full of cheap jumpscares. however, this game is able to build sinister and terrifying ambience before the actual jumpscare. the OST keeps lingering in my ears
Honestly Great horror game, the puzzles were fun, the story was alr and the gameplay was also great. Usually I'm not a fan of stealth segments in games but in this one they were really well done, same with some chases. Also great atmosphere and visuals, pretty scary too. I def recommend and I give it about an 8.5/10. I was surprised by good it was and I'm not kidding.
"Are they really exist?" *Ring ring* "Hello?" "I am Ghost face. You got tricked by ghost." Devastatingly bad, with no redeeming qualities. Honestly the translation work was better than the gameplay, story and atmosphere, which is a feat in and of itself.
Player reviews from Steam: the most helpful all-time, plus the newest that clear the same quality bar, with the hours each player had put in when they wrote it. The mix of Recommended and Not recommended follows the game's Steam ratio. Rotates daily. Opinions are theirs.

港詭實錄ParanormalHK scores 64/100 on the BANG Score (fair value). The BANG Score rates what a game is worth for the money. Via Steam BANGERS. https://steambangers.com/game/1178490/paranormalhkThe BANG Score is one number for value, 0 to 100: price against how it reviews and how long it was built to be. It answers the money question and stops there; whether the game is for you is still your call.
Reviews set the ceiling and price moves you inside it, so a cheap game that reviews badly cannot climb. Ratings from few reviewers are shrunk toward the middle, so 100 percent from nine people does not outrank 96 percent from ninety thousand. Length comes from HowLongToBeat where it can be matched, measured against a per-genre floor so a five-hour narrative game is judged against other narrative games rather than against a sixty-hour RPG. Where no verified length exists the score says so and carries a dock, because the biggest input is then a guess. The full method, including where it is weak → Steam reviews as of Sep 18, price as of Sep 24.
