The value story
June 2025 is where it bottomed out, at $39.99. Its cuts run 20 percent off as a rule. There have been 15 in the 2 years tracked, about 7 weeks apart.

Players rate it 91 percent positive over its lifetime, but the last 30 days run 75 percent. Something recent has soured the room. Of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 35 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written November 2024 to August 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 7 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 2,814 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 839 have a larger share. Inside the two-hour refund window, 77 percent of the 457 reviews written there were positive, against 91 percent overall, and those are 8 percent of everything written about it.
