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.
The value story
June 2026 is where it bottomed out, at $1.59. 57 discounts in the 5 years on record. They run about 80 percent off, roughly 5 weeks apart.
Against its own genre it lands in the top 16 percent on value. It is pricier than 83 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 93 percent. Nobody Wants to Die ($2.49, scores 66) outscores it, and so does Kathy Rain 2: Soothsayer ($19.99, scores 70). Both sit among its closest neighbours.
Of the 480 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 3 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written May 2021 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 68 percent of the 107 reviews written there were positive, against 92 percent overall, and those are 5 percent of everything written about it.
It carries Valve's Deck Verified rating, which is the one that means it just works.
