On value it sits in the top 1 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 85 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 99 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Aviassembly ($7.99, scores 87) beats it on value, while it beats Stationeers ($34.99, scores 65).

This site sampled 484 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 12 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written June 2023 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 87 percent of the 336 reviews written there were positive, against 95 percent overall, and those are 10 percent of everything written about it.
