The value story

24 discounts in the 6 years on record, a median of 50 percent off across all of them, roughly 12 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 11 days ago.

It is cheaper than 74 percent of its genre. The games it most resembles do better on the same math. The Beginner's Guide ($9.99, scores 59) and despelote ($7.49, scores 76) both outscore it.

More about Sunlight

83 on Metacritic, 75 percent from players. A gap this way round is usually launch damage or a slow decline.

Inside the two-hour refund window, 82 percent of the 187 reviews written there were positive, against 75 percent overall, and those are 98 percent of everything written about it.

It carries Valve's Deck Verified rating and runs 0.6 hours, about as long as a handheld game wants to be.
