The value story

The value story

It has been discounted 39 times in the 6 years tracked here. The median cut across all of them is 45 percent, about 5 weeks apart. Today's $9.99 at 50 percent off matches the lowest price in the record.

It is pricier than 84 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 97 percent. 7 Days to Die ($44.99, scores 69) outscores it, and so does Cepheus Protocol ($19.99, scores 26). Both sit among its closest neighbours.

What drives the score

Grades: S best, D weakest

S is the best grade and D the weakest, judged as a buyer. ▲ raises the score, ▼ lowers it, ? is an input we do not have, • is 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 Shooter game (about 6 hours) and docked the score for the missing length.

Steam-purchase reviews sampled whose writer refunded the game. Nothing is docked

From the developer's own Steam disclosure. No disclosure is not proof of none, so it does not move the score

Reviews set the ceiling, and price against its genre's typical length moves the BANG Score inside it, docked until a real length is known. How it works, and where it is weak → Steam reviews as of Oct 31, price as of Nov 7. A number here look wrong? Tell me and I will check the inputs.
