The value story

The lowest price on record is $6.24, set in June 2025. 11 discounts in the 3 years on record. They run about 75 percent off, roughly 13 weeks apart. Today's $6.24 at 75 percent off matches the lowest price in the record.

Take the discount away and it is a 52. With it, 54.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 13 percent on value. It is pricier than 92 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 71 percent. Among the games that feel like it, PickCrafter (free, scores 62) beats it on value, while it beats Hokko Life ($19.99, scores 16).

Of the 580 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 22 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written February 2024 to September 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 8 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 3,162 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 364 have a larger share. In its first 30 days on sale, 11 of 113 sampled reviews came from refunders. Inside the two-hour refund window, 59 percent of the 186 reviews written there were positive, against 79 percent overall, and those are 15 percent of everything written about it.

It carries Valve's Deck Verified rating, which is the one that means it just works.

The drop-off

No achievement in this game marks the ending, so there is no finish rate. The curve runs from the most-unlocked achievement to the rarest, and its shape is where players stop. Steam global achievements

What players say

Queria muito poder dar um positivo nesse jogo, ele é bem divertido e o conceito é legal, mas nossa como ele fica entediante muito rápido, é só crafting atrás de crafting travado atrás de uma lista de habilidades gigantesca. Chega numa hora que você fica "agora preciso de A, mas pra isso preciso de B, mas antes preciso de C" e por aí vai...

I thought for the longest time why this game is such a disappointment to me, because the prologue and chapter 1 are a joy to play. And then I realised that this game is build like a free mobile game with predatory monetisation but the monetisation got removed. To progress you need to organise parties, to organise parties you need to have specific skills/ craft specific items. There are several skill trees and you...

Game is cute and somewhat fun. Its really tedious most of the game is traveling between places to craft and gather materials. If it was a little shorter i think it would be a really good game for its genre, but its doing the same thing so often that it is a slog toward the end imo. I would give it a meh. Runs well on Steam deck
