The value story

It has never been cheaper than $8.99. That was November 2025. Its cuts run 30 percent off as a rule. There have been 26 in the 4 years tracked, about 7 weeks apart. Today's $10.49 at 30 percent off still sits 17 percent above the floor, so a deeper cut exists in its history.

Take the discount away and it is a 80. With it, 86.

On value it sits in the top 1 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 74 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 Underhero ($14.99, scores 65).

The press gave it 85; the people who bought it give it 97 percent. A 12-point gap in the buyer's favour.

Steam's global achievement data puts 74 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. The median game this site can measure sits at 15. Of the 337 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, none come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2023 to August 2026.

Valve rates it Steam Deck Verified, and at 4.6 hours it is short enough to finish on one.

What players say

"Oh yea oh yea, Bruh Man Cried." Loved Roy and Meg, they did a phenomenal job fleshing out Golans' story. Tempted to purchase the DLC to learn more about a few other characters.
