The value story

March 2020 is where it bottomed out, at $1.19. 69 discounts in the 7 years on record. They run about 20 percent off, roughly 5 weeks apart. No sale on record has reached $1.09, the price it would take to be a BANGER.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 3 percent on value. It is cheaper than 90 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 97 percent. Among the games that feel like it, While We Wait Here ($4.99, scores 75) beats it on value, while it beats The Cabin Factory ($2.99, scores 73).

None of the 353 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 94 percent of the 1,052 reviews written there were positive, against 94 percent overall, and those are 97 percent of everything written about it.

0.5 hours to finish it, 1 to exhaust it. The completionist tail is 2.0 times the campaign.

At 0.5 hours it is a handheld-sized game, and Valve rates it Deck Verified.

No data upstream: critic score (Metacritic), achievement curve (Steam global achievements).
