The value story
August 2026 is where it bottomed out, at $8.99. Its cuts run 50 percent off as a rule. There have been 12 in the 2 years tracked, about 8 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 4 weeks ago.
Against its own genre it lands in the top 40 percent on value. It is pricier than 75 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 60 percent. Among the games that feel like it, DAVE THE DIVER ($19.99, scores 76) beats it on value, while it beats Jalopy ($14.99, scores 41).
Of the 466 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 9 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written December 2024 to September 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 7 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 698 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 75 have a larger share.
It carries Valve's Deck Verified rating, which is the one that means it just works.

The first time you ace a fix without the guidebook feels good, it feels like a...
What I like: - the space cartoon aesthetic, and art is genuinely neat - it has a good tactile feeling of clocking in, or while you're doing repairs. Something i'll use - there is a feeling of "mastery" as you read your grimoire - Game Modes! Seeing that I could swap to "Focused Fixing" where I don't get a timelimit is lit. What I didn't care for personally: - I dont feel the profanity helps the game at all. and i...
I've had an absolutely tremendous time playing Uncle Chop's Rocket Shop. The learning curve is brutal, but the satisfaction from nailing down how everything works is so, so good. If Frantic mode is too much, Focused mode allows you to enjoy the game without the intense pressure (just avoid Reactor missions, which is doable 9 times out of 10). I'm still uncovering endings and secrets, and having an absolute blast of...
