The value story

It has never been cheaper than $29.99. That was December 2025. Its cuts run 30 percent off as a rule. There have been 17 in the 4 years tracked, about 9 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 9 days ago.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 29 percent on value. It is pricier than 99 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 90 percent. Among the games that feel like it, GYLT ($19.99, scores 63) beats it on value, while it beats Amnesia: Rebirth ($29.99, scores 36).

Of the 458 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 6 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2023 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 79 percent of the 272 reviews written there were positive, against 89 percent overall, and those are 17 percent of everything written about it.
