The value story
The lowest price on record is $11.99, set in November 2024. Its cuts run 20 percent off as a rule. There have been 17 in the 2 years tracked, about 7 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 11 days ago. The math puts its BANGER price at $14.42. The record reaches that level 11 times.
Against its own genre it lands in the top 2 percent on value. It is pricier than 84 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 98 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Doloc Town ($15.99, scores 91) beats it on value, while it beats Little Witch in the Woods ($19.99, scores 62).
