The value story

The lowest price on record is $9.99, set in April 2026. 12 discounts in the 1 year on record. They run about 40 percent off, roughly 6 weeks apart.

Value puts it in the top 2 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 92 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 91 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Crashlands ($14.99, scores 80) beats it on value, while it beats Tinkerlands ($12.99, scores 66).

Steam's global achievement data puts about 18 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. On a 32.2-hour game, the hours short of it still count in its price per hour. Of the 562 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 5 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written April 2025 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 81 percent of the 242 reviews written there were positive, against 88 percent overall, and those are 11 percent of everything written about it.

It carries Valve's Deck Verified rating, which is the one that means it just works.
