The value story

The value story

It has never been cheaper than $5.59. That was September 2025. Across all 54 discounts in the 6 years tracked, the median cut is 30 percent, about 5 weeks apart.

Its score sits in the top 1 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 78 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 99 percent. Among the games closest to it, TerraScape ($14.99, scores 69) and Terra Nil ($24.99, scores 53) both come in lower.

$43.34 is where it would stop being a BANGER.

Reviews

Replayability~31h to replay
Co-op and replay time. The value score counts hours well past the 5.2h main story
MonetizationNone
Checked: no in-game purchases or loot boxes. That earns a small credit unless Steam lists in-app purchases
Holding it back
Cost per hour$1.75/hr
Price per hour of game. It moves the score inside the ceiling reviews set. That is today's sale price. Normally $2.69/hr
For context
Refunds33 of 800 reviews
Steam-purchase reviews sampled whose writer refunded the game. Nothing is docked
AI contentNone disclosed
From the developer's own Steam disclosure. No disclosure is not proof of none, so it does not move the score

What players say

1,000+ hours of the most productive procrastination project development I've ever done. Dorfromantik gives my impatient golden-retriever brain a job while I wait on customers lead critical land-use planning initiatives, and it keeps me in problem-solving mode instead of drifting off. It's a cozy puzzle game cross-functional resource allocation exercise that quietly trains you to find where the pieces fit, which...
