What drives the score
How to read this
Grades run S to D, read from the buyer's side. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. How the grades work
- How long it takes to beat isn't in our data. The score is docked for the missing length.

This site sampled 509 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 15 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written May 2022 to September 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 9 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 2,725 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 294 have a larger share. The typical game sits near 5 in 1,000, so the score docks it. 2 of the 15 refunded reviewers were past Valve's two-hour window when they wrote the review. Inside the two-hour refund window, 47 percent of the 221 reviews written there were positive, against 80 percent overall, and those are 21 percent of everything written about it.
