Minimum on the Steam store: 4 GB of memory, 2GB dedicated VRAM, Shader Model 5.0, 3 GB of storage. Windows only.

Carefully balance mobility, firepower and armour in a dedicated tank designer. Then uncarefully put them to the test in a series of combat scenarios progressing through the ages of the tank. Here, your limit is what you can fit inside your hull and turret while still being able to move forwards.

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. The score is docked for the missing length.

The value story

August 2021 is where it bottomed out, at $19.99. In 5 years of price history it has never once been discounted.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 40 percent on value. It is pricier than 67 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 87 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Attack on Toys ($6.99, scores 63) beats it on value, while it beats NavalArt ($19.99, scores 48).

Players rate it 92 percent positive over its lifetime, but the last 30 days run 84 percent. Something recent has soured the room. This site sampled 800 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 22 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written May 2023 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 71 percent of the 791 reviews written there were positive, against 92 percent overall, and those are 6 percent of everything written about it.

Sprocket scores 51/100 on the BANG Score (fair value) as of Oct 2, 2026. Length is not in our data, so the score is docked. The BANG Score rates what a game is worth for the money. Via Steam BANGERS. https://steambangers.com/game/1674170/sprocket

Reviews set the ceiling. With no length in our data, value sits at a neutral middle whatever the price, and the BANG Score is docked until a real length is known. How it works, and where it is weak → Steam reviews as of Sep 26, price as of Oct 1.
