The value story
October 2024 is where it bottomed out, at $5.99. It has been discounted 14 times in the 3 years tracked here, typically at 50 percent off, with about 10 weeks between sales. Today's $10.49 at 30 percent off still sits 75 percent above the floor, so a deeper cut exists in its history.
This sale is doing real work. 86 at list, 93 today.
Against its own genre it lands in the top 1 percent on value. It is pricier than 94 percent of its genre, and the best reviewed. It outscores the games it most resembles, including Left on Read (free, scores 55) and Heads Will Roll: Reforged ($24.99, scores 45).
The math says it holds its tier up to $15.40, and you are being asked for $10.49.
None of the 391 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written February 2024 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 93 percent of the 211 reviews written there were positive, against 98 percent overall, and those are 4 percent of everything written about it.
The main story runs 11.1 hours. Doing everything runs 25, 2.2 times as long.
