The value story
The lowest price on record is $4.99, set in April 2026. It has been discounted 13 times in the 18 months tracked here, typically at 50 percent off, with about 6 weeks between sales. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 2 weeks ago.
Value puts it in the top 13 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 90 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 89 percent. LIMBO ($1.24, scores 87) outscores it, and so does The Swapper ($2.24, scores 92). Both sit among its closest neighbours.
3 of the 412 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written April 2025 to August 2026.
Valve rates it Steam Deck Verified, and at 8 hours it is short enough to finish on one.

A lot of cool mechanics and platforming challenges. The campaign could be a little shorter TBH, notably the first half of it. But it's a nice game with spatial puzzles where you have to stop and think, and with great dynamic sequences as well.
