The value story

It has been discounted 34 times in the 3 years tracked here. The median cut across all of them is 50 percent, about 6 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 10 days ago.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 26 percent on value. It is pricier than 78 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 77 percent. The games it most resembles do better on the same math. Moss VR ($9.99, scores 66) and Creaks ($19.99, scores 67) both outscore it.
