The value story
It has never been cheaper than $9.99. That was March 2026. It has been discounted 29 times in the 3 years tracked here, typically at 55 percent off, with about 5 weeks between sales. Today it is at full price. The last sale was about 4 weeks ago, and on this game's rhythm the next one tends to arrive within 5 weeks. No sale on record has reached $5.79, the price it would take to be a BANGER.
Against its own genre it lands in the top 6 percent on value. It is pricier than 95 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 98 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Figment 2: Creed Valley ($24.99, scores 60) beats it on value, while it beats Mirror's Edge™ ($19.99, scores 55).
83 from critics against 93 percent from players, and the player number comes from people who own the game.
Steam's global achievement data puts 31 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. The median game this site can measure sits at 8. Of the 567 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 18 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written October 2023 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 68 percent of the 316 reviews written there were positive, against 93 percent overall, and those are 8 percent of everything written about it.
At 4.5 hours it is a handheld-sized game, and Valve rates it Deck Verified.

What players say
TLDR: I would really like to recommend this game on the merits of it's presentation but ultimately the gameplay was frustrating because of linear design choices. Highs: Beautiful art direction, music and cinematics. Lovely character animations and genuinely engaging world. Mids: Decent performance but some frame drops and audio glitching. Depending on your preferences, this is an easy game to pick up and complete...
Enjoyed it, no longer works. Appears to be bugged for others and will not start. I have uninstalled / reinstalled, restarted my PC, etc. Was looking forward to coming back to this game and finishing it, but I guess I can't now
ABSOLUTE CINEMA OF A GAME! I completed the game in one setting. It was so relaxing, not too easy and not too hard, just the right balance.
