The value story

May 2026 is where it bottomed out, at $4.99. It has been discounted 21 times in the 4 years tracked here, typically at 25 percent off, with about 10 weeks between sales. Today's $5.99 at 40 percent off still sits 20 percent above the floor, so a deeper cut exists in its history. No sale on record has reached $3.67, the price it would take to be a BANGER.

This sale is doing real work. 67 at list, 76 today.

On value it sits in the top 2 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 83 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 98 percent. Among the games that feel like it, The Bunny Graveyard ($6.99, scores 82) beats it on value, while it beats They Breathe ($1.99, scores 58).

Of the 478 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 9 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written October 2022 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 85 percent of the 523 reviews written there were positive, against 94 percent overall, and those are 18 percent of everything written about it.

The main story runs 3 hours. Doing everything runs 6, 2.1 times as long.

It carries Valve's Deck Verified rating and runs 3 hours, about as long as a handheld game wants to be.

What players say

I love the mechanic with dragging yourself across the floor and manually reloading everything!!! It makes the game stand out from any other horror!!! :)

Great game with a satisfying combat system that does feel as challenging (and scary) as it should with three lost limbs - without being frustrating. Enough items are provided to finish the game with a bit of surplus if you do well. Also has pretty sick music. It's a fairly short game that's worth the price, but I would grab it on sale. Wouldn't recommended if you have hand pain problems.
LitRRecommendedafter 4.4hAug 2026Read on Steam
When I first saw the game on YouTube, I liked the concept and was drawn to it, so I bought it. This was one of the worst decisions I ever made. Within the first twenty minutes, you'll understand the gameplay, things start to repeat themselves, and boredom begins to creep in. The developer tried to make the story deep, but it was pointless. It's just walk, kill, walk-nothing new. And if the developer takes pity on...
