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
The lowest price on record is $0.99, set in September 2025. 51 discounts in the 5 years on record. They run about 80 percent off, roughly 5 weeks apart. Today's $2.49 at 75 percent off still sits 152 percent above the floor, so a deeper cut exists in its history.
Against its own genre it lands in the top 7 percent on value. It is pricier than 64 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 89 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Ultimate Chicken Horse ($14.99, scores 89) beats it on value, while it beats Party Animals ($9.99, scores 51).
This site sampled 800 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 22 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written September 2023 to September 2026.

CONS - Very party-oriented and much more enjoyable with a group. - Replayability feels somewhat limited despite the number of modes. - Occasional connection issues, although they...
Pretty fun for what it's worth. I enjoyed it, though it would probably be more fun with friends, and I don't have friends ): Also ran quite well on low graphics settings.

Rubber Bandits scores 62/100 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/1206610/rubber-banditsThe 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.
