The value story
It has never been cheaper than $3.89. That was October 2023. 42 discounts in the 4 years on record. They run about 25 percent off, roughly 5 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 4 weeks ago.
Against its own genre it lands in the top 14 percent on value. It is pricier than 79 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 95 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Backrooms: Escape Together ($7.49, scores 67) beats it on value, while it beats Unplagued ($3.99, scores 0).
Of the 615 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 33 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written February 2023 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 2,814 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 312 have a larger share. The typical game sits near 5 in 1,000, so the score docks it. 9 of the 33 refunded reviewers were past Valve's two-hour window when they wrote the review. Inside the two-hour refund window, 78 percent of the 635 reviews written there were positive, against 89 percent overall, and those are 21 percent of everything written about it.
