The value story

March 2026 is where it bottomed out, at $12.49. 19 discounts in the 2 years on record. They run about 30 percent off, roughly 5 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 4 weeks ago. It becomes a BANGER at $16.01, a level the record has reached 8 times.

On value it sits in the top 2 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 95 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 96 percent. Among the games closest to it, Minute of Islands ($19.99, scores 34) and Incantation ($9.34, scores 38) both come in lower.

This site sampled 488 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 5 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written May 2024 to August 2026.

Valve rates it Steam Deck Verified, so it runs on the handheld without fiddling.
