The value story
November 2022 is where it bottomed out, at $1.99. 53 discounts in the 6 years on record. They run about 75 percent off, roughly 6 weeks apart.
Against its own genre it lands in the top 8 percent on value. It is pricier than 92 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 96 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Pikuniku ($12.99, scores 76) beats it on value, while it beats Unravel Two ($19.99, scores 38).
The press gave it 81; the people who bought it give it 91 percent. A 10-point gap in the buyer's favour.
Of the 708 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 7 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written June 2020 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 69 percent of the 559 reviews written there were positive, against 91 percent overall, and those are 13 percent of everything written about it.
