The value story

October 2026 is where it bottomed out, at $6.79. Its cuts run 35 percent off as a rule. There have been 35 in the 4 years tracked, about 6 weeks apart. Today's $6.79 at 66 percent off matches the lowest price in the record.

At full price it scores 46. The current cut is what makes it a 59.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 29 percent on value. It is pricier than 68 percent of its genre. Among the games that feel like it, Resident Evil 7 Biohazard ($19.99, scores 74) beats it on value, while it beats Earthfall ($19.99, scores 16).

Of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 50 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written April 2024 to September 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 9 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 1,071 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 100 have a larger share. The typical game sits near 5 in 1,000, so the score docks it. 6 of the 50 refunded reviewers were past Valve's two-hour window when they wrote the review. In its first 30 days on sale, 14 of 117 sampled reviews came from refunders. Inside the two-hour refund window, 59 percent of the 1,063 reviews written there were positive, against 82 percent overall, and those are 22 percent of everything written about it. It sells extras on top of the sticker price (unlock); the score docks it lightly for that.

The main story runs 8.8 hours. Doing everything runs 34, 3.8 times as long.

What players say

Amazing game, have put a few hours in on co-op with friends and on solo. An Amazing Zombies style game with good stories that you get guided through and easter eggs you don't. Loads of maps, guns etc to upgrade etc. Really good game and it seems to keep being developed with new maps being released even now. Best part, not pay to win like a lot of modern games are now.
