The value story
It has never been cheaper than $11.99. That was February 2026. Its cuts run 35 percent off as a rule. There have been 30 in the 3 years tracked, about 5 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 4 weeks ago.
It is pricier than 67 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 60 percent. The nearest things to it, DeadPoly ($9.99, scores 35) and Miscreated ($29.99, scores 11), are both worse buys on this math.
Of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 37 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written April 2026 to August 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 9 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 1,071 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 55 have a larger share. The typical game sits near 5 in 1,000, so the score docks it. 4 of the 37 refunded reviewers were past Valve's two-hour window when they wrote the review. Inside the two-hour refund window, 32 percent of the 1,762 reviews written there were positive, against 74 percent overall, and those are 16 percent of everything written about it.
Finishing takes 23 hours; clearing it takes 50, which is 2.2 times the campaign.

What players say
To be honest, I'm shocked. I actually bought this game once before and refunded it. I only picked it up again because it was on discount, thinking, Come on, I'll play it for 3 4 hours, have a laugh, and uninstall it. But damn… the game is actually not bad at all. It has come a LONG way. Especially the survivor recruitment system !!! wow. That part is awesome and honestly made the game feel much more alive than I...
Lots of Fun. Quests that keep you busy, better graphics and gameplay than PZ, and overall, one of the best games of this decade. So much to do, build, and explore. The game simply gobbles you up like few other games do.
HumanitZ is a fun survival game, especially when playing PvE. Exploring, gathering resources, building you base, and surviving agianst the environment can be a lot of fun. The Pve experience is probably my favorite part of the game and can keep you coming back for more. Unfortunately, the PvP side has been a much more frustrating experience. Running into players who appear to be cheating or exploiting glitches...
