The value story
It has never been cheaper than $14.44. That was October 2022. 11 discounts in the 4 years on record. They run about 30 percent off, roughly 12 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 9 days ago.
Against its own genre it lands in the top 27 percent on value. It is pricier than 94 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 89 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Disney Dreamlight Valley ($23.99, scores 76) beats it on value, while it beats Ultimate Epic Battle Simulator 2 ($19.99, scores 41).
Players rate it 85 percent positive over its lifetime, but the last 30 days run 66 percent. Something recent has soured the room. Of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 36 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written June 2023 to August 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 7 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 2,725 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 657 have a larger share. Inside the two-hour refund window, 37 percent of the 351 reviews written there were positive, against 85 percent overall, and those are 9 percent of everything written about it.
