The value story

September 2026 is where it bottomed out, at $15.99. It has gone on sale 2 times in the 71 days tracked here, most recently in September 2026. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 3 days ago. $9.52 is what it would take to make this a BANGER, and nothing in its history goes that low.

On value it sits in the top 4 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 85 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 98 percent. Among the games closest to it, At Dead Of Night ($15.99, scores 71) and SiNiSistar 2 ($11.24, scores 71) both come in lower.

Steam's global achievement data puts 45 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. The median game this site can measure sits at 15.

Inside the two-hour refund window, 74 percent of the 239 reviews written there were positive, against 94 percent overall, and those are 6 percent of everything written about it.
