October 2025 is where it bottomed out, at $27.99. It has been discounted 20 times in the 4 years tracked here, typically at 25 percent off, with about 7 weeks between sales. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 13 weeks ago.
Value puts it in the top 1 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 97 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 99 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Grimm's Hollow (free, scores 93) beats it on value, while it beats FINAL FANTASY VI ($10.79, scores 87).
On this data it would still be a BANGER at $58.16. It costs $39.99.
