The value story
It has never been cheaper than $6.83. That was June 2026. 34 discounts in the 4 years on record. They run about 50 percent off, roughly 6 weeks apart.
Against its own genre it lands in the top 3 percent on value. It is pricier than 82 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 96 percent. Among the games closest to it, We Were Here Together ($12.99, scores 56) and We Were Here (free, scores 76) both come in lower.
Players rate it 90 percent positive over its lifetime, but the last 30 days run 82 percent. Something recent has soured the room. Of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 3 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written December 2024 to September 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 51 percent of the 413 reviews written there were positive, against 90 percent overall, and those are 3 percent of everything written about it.
At 10.5 hours it is a handheld-sized game, and Valve rates it Deck Verified.
