The value story
It has never been cheaper than $4.99. That was March 2026. 30 discounts in the 3 years on record. They run about 50 percent off, roughly 5 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 6 days ago.
Value puts it in the top 1 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 91 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 97 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Hollow Knight ($14.99, scores 97) beats it on value, while it beats Pronty ($17.99, scores 52).
Critics scored it 83. Players sit 8 points higher at 91 percent, which usually means a game that plays better than it reviews.
20 of the 787 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written October 2023 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 74 percent of the 503 reviews written there were positive, against 91 percent overall, and those are 9 percent of everything written about it.
It carries Valve's Deck Verified rating, which is the one that means it just works.

What players say
Fantastic story driven game, really shows the nitty gritty of a post apocalyptic war. Game is hard but very satsifying when you get it down. Now give us a sequel please.
