The value story
It has never been cheaper than $6.49. That was September 2025. It has been discounted 40 times in the 4 years tracked here, typically at 34 percent off, with about 5 weeks between sales. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 3 weeks ago. The math puts its BANGER price at $4.37. No recorded sale has reached it yet.
Value puts it in the top 5 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 92 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 98 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Mini Metro ($9.99, scores 96) beats it on value, while it beats Station to Station ($17.99, scores 63).
2 of the 399 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written September 2022 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 91 percent of the 363 reviews written there were positive, against 94 percent overall, and those are 20 percent of everything written about it.
The main story runs 4.5 hours. Doing everything runs 12, 2.6 times as long.
Valve rates it Steam Deck Verified, and at 4.5 hours it is short enough to finish on one.
