The value story
It has never been cheaper than $39.99. That was June 2026. In 62 days of price history it has never once been discounted.
Against its own genre it lands in the top 20 percent on value. It is pricier than 99 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 90 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Life is Strange: True Colors ($59.99, scores 47) beats it on value, while it beats Life is Strange: Double Exposure ($19.99, scores 20).
Steam's global achievement data puts 41 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. The median game this site can measure sits at 15. Of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 1 comes from a buyer who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2022 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 56 percent of the 157 reviews written there were positive, against 85 percent overall, and those are 4 percent of everything written about it. It sells extras on top of the sticker price (cosmetic); the score docks it lightly for that.
