The value story
The value story
63 discounts in the 14 years on record, a median of 66 percent off across all of them, roughly 9 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 2 weeks ago.
Against its own genre its score lands in the top 1 percent. It is cheaper than 74 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 99 percent. The nearest things to it, 64.0 ($2.99, scores 80) and BIT.TRIP RUNNER ($9.99, scores 64), are both worse buys on this math.
$9.00 is where it would stop being a BANGER.

If Polybius was real, this is what I'd imagine that game to be. Minus the migraines.
