What drives the score
How to read this
Every input gets a grade, S to D, read from the buyer's side. The score is multiplicative, so an input only counts as raising when it sits near the top of its own scale. Anything with real room left is holding the score back, because that room is the gap to 100. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. The exact weights stay secret.
The value story
It has never been cheaper than $9.99. That was September 2025. It has gone on sale 2 times in the 4 years tracked here, most recently in September 2025.
Against its own genre it lands in the top 3 percent on value. It is pricier than 87 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 98 percent. Among the games that feel like it, FOREWARNED ($12.99, scores 82) beats it on value, while it beats Granny ($7.99, scores 72).
16 of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written January 2026 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 81 percent of the 2,870 reviews written there were positive, against 91 percent overall, and those are 6 percent of everything written about it. It sells extras on top of the sticker price (currency); the score docks it lightly for that.
Still 852 concurrent players, 3 years in.

Gorilla Tag scores 73/100 on the BANG Score (worth it). The BANG Score rates what a game is worth for the money. Via Steam BANGERS. https://steambangers.com/game/1533390/gorilla-tagThe BANG Score is one number for value, 0 to 100: price against how it reviews and how long it was built to be. It answers the money question and stops there; whether the game is for you is still your call.
Reviews set the ceiling and price moves you inside it, so a cheap game that reviews badly cannot climb. Ratings from few reviewers are shrunk toward the middle, so 100 percent from nine people does not outrank 96 percent from ninety thousand. Length comes from HowLongToBeat where it can be matched, measured against a per-genre floor so a five-hour narrative game is judged against other narrative games rather than against a sixty-hour RPG. Where no verified length exists the score says so and carries a dock, because the biggest input is then a guess. The full method, including where it is weak → Steam reviews as of Aug 2, price as of Sep 23.
