The value story

June 2024 is where it bottomed out, at $14.99. Its cuts run 25 percent off as a rule. There have been 6 in the 3 years tracked, about 17 weeks apart. No sale on record has reached $9.35, the price it would take to be a BANGER.

Value puts it in the top 4 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 87 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 99 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Ikenfell ($19.99, scores 74) beats it on value, while it beats 再刷一把 PlayAgain ($8.99, scores 15).

Of the 382 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, none come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written November 2023 to September 2026.
