The value story
June 2026 is where it bottomed out, at $5.99. Its cuts run 50 percent off as a rule. There have been 44 in the 5 years tracked, about 5 weeks apart.
Value puts it in the top 15 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 92 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 90 percent. Rain World ($24.99, scores 82) outscores it, and so does Gato Roboto ($7.99, scores 82). Both sit among its closest neighbours.
11 of the 799 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written October 2021 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 58 percent of the 611 reviews written there were positive, against 85 percent overall, and those are 13 percent of everything written about it.
Finishing takes 6.2 hours; clearing it takes 25, which is 4.1 times the campaign.
