Abe's peaceful retirement was shattered when visited by a vision from the Mudokon Spirit Guides. Abe™ learned the Magog Cartel was mining Necrum, the sacred Mudokon city of the dead, to collect bones to make super-addictive SoulStorm Brew.

What drives the score

How to read this

Grades run S to D, read from the buyer's side. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. How the grades work

What we assumed
  • How long it takes to beat isn't in our data. We scored it as a typical Narrative game (about 5 hours) and docked the score for the missing length.

Reviews95% positive
Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones Scored as 94% after the small-sample adjustment
MonetizationNone
Checked: no in-game purchases or loot boxes. That earns a small credit unless Steam lists in-app purchases
Holding it back

No length in our data yet, so the biggest driver can't be verified. A heavy dock until it is

The value story

It has never been cheaper than $0.59. That was January 2016. It has been discounted 61 times in the 14 years tracked here, typically at 70 percent off, with about 10 weeks between sales.

Value puts it in the top 2 percent of the games it competes with. It is cheaper than 78 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 97 percent. The nearest things to it, Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty ($19.99, scores 43) and Pinstripe ($14.99, scores 49), are both worse buys on this math.

This site sampled 331 of its Steam-purchase reviews; none were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 87 percent of the 357 reviews written there were positive, against 95 percent overall, and those are 24 percent of everything written about it.
