What drives the score

How to read this

Grades run S to D, read from the buyer's side. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. How the grades work

Reviews93% positive
Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones
Holding it back
Value$3.52/hr
Price per hour of game. It moves the score inside the ceiling reviews set
Refunds67 of 800 reviews
Well above the typical game's share of reviews from refunded buyers, so the score takes a small dock

The value story

The lowest price on record is $2.99, set in October 2025. 11 discounts in the 3 years on record. They run about 30 percent off, roughly 13 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 13 weeks ago. Past sales have already crossed the $3.22 BANGER line once.

On value it sits in the top 2 percent of its genre. It is better reviewed than 98 percent of its genre. Among the games that feel like it, Buddy Simulator 1984 ($9.99, scores 79) beats it on value, while it beats Just Ignore Them ($3.99, scores 37).

This site sampled 800 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 67 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written July 2024 to August 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 9 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 2,725 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 98 have a larger share. The typical game sits near 5 in 1,000, so the score docks it. 7 of the 67 refunded reviewers were past Valve's two-hour window when they wrote the review. Inside the two-hour refund window, 87 percent of the 4,216 reviews written there were positive, against 93 percent overall, and those are 32 percent of everything written about it.

1.7 hours to finish it, 4 to exhaust it. The completionist tail is 2.2 times the campaign.

The drop-off

98% start to 7% rarest

No achievement in this game marks the ending, so there is no finish rate. The curve runs from the most-unlocked achievement to the rarest, and its shape is where players stop. Steam global achievements

Gotta love AI that is sentient and doesn't want you to leave + can be taken as an allegory for the fear of abandonment / change, one of my favourite flavours. VERY VERY good game, had a fun time playing it and it did spook me a bit in my first playthrough lol Thanks Axe for showing me this silly game that day, became one of my favourites!! >:D

super fun, an extra ending for the 100% er's, and a good scare without being gory and graphic (slight blood warning, however, and disturbing imagery)
