The value story
The lowest price on record is $4.99, set in September 2025. 29 discounts in the 3 years on record. They run about 66 percent off, roughly 7 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 4 weeks ago. The math puts its BANGER price at $8.92. The record reaches that level 16 times.
Against its own genre it lands in the top 5 percent on value. It is pricier than 94 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 98 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Satellite Odyssey: Prologue ($1.99, scores 83) beats it on value, while it beats The Exit 8 ($3.99, scores 66).
Steam's global achievement data puts 41 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. The median game this site can measure sits at 15. Of the 652 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 18 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written June 2023 to September 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 50 percent of the 259 reviews written there were positive, against 93 percent overall, and those are 5 percent of everything written about it.
Finishing takes 5.1 hours; clearing it takes 12, which is 2.3 times the campaign.

Graphically it will win...
