The value story

September 2026 is where it bottomed out, at $27.99. Its cuts run 50 percent off as a rule. There have been 12 in the 2 years tracked, about 8 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 2 weeks ago. $15.19 is what it would take to make this a BANGER, and nothing in its history goes that low.

Value puts it in the top 7 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 99 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 99 percent. Among the games that feel like it, The Evil Within 2 ($39.99, scores 66) beats it on value, while it beats Blair Witch ($29.99, scores 34).

This site sampled 800 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 31 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written February 2026 to September 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 7 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 2,814 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 802 have a larger share. Inside the two-hour refund window, 76 percent of the 2,479 reviews written there were positive, against 95 percent overall, and those are 6 percent of everything written about it. It sells extras on top of the sticker price (time-limited); the score docks it lightly for that.

The main story runs 16.1 hours. Doing everything runs 32, 2.0 times as long.

Personal Rating: Very Positive (90%) I got Silent Hill 2 alongside Silent Hill f in a bundle, so I'm gonna compare this to Silent Hill f, as it's the closest thing to it. (I might expand this review as I progress further) Horror feels less prevalent and grotesque agaist SHf, but the tense scenes last longer on average here than in SHf. That being said, both games have their moments where they shine. The monsters are...
