What drives the score

How to read this

Grades run S to D, read from the buyer's side. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. How the grades work

What we assumed
  • How long it takes to beat isn't in our data. The score is docked for the missing length.
Holding it back
Reviews70% positive
Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones
Length unknownNo verified $/hr
No length in our data yet, so the biggest driver can't be verified. A heavy dock until it is
For context
MonetizationNot known
No monetization record for this game, so nothing is assumed either way
Refunds26 of 800 reviews
Steam-purchase reviews sampled whose writer refunded the game. Nothing is docked
AI contentNone disclosed
From the developer's own Steam disclosure. No disclosure is not proof of none, so it does not move the score

The value story

Across all 16 discounts in the 2 years tracked, the median cut is 30 percent, about 6 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 10 days ago.

It is pricier than 91 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 68 percent. On the same math Dinkum ($19.99, scores 86) and Card Survival: Fantasy Forest ($21.99, scores 39) are the better buys, and they are the games it most resembles.

The drop-off

86% start to <1% rarest
050100rarestfirst achievement

No achievement in this game marks the ending, so there is no finish rate. The curve runs from the most-unlocked achievement to the rarest, and its shape is where players stop. Steam global achievements

No data upstream: length (HowLongToBeat), critic score (Metacritic).
