The value story

February 2026 is where it bottomed out, at $8.49. It has been discounted 32 times in the 3 years tracked here, typically at 30 percent off, with about 5 weeks between sales. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 3 weeks ago. The math puts its BANGER price at $4.66. No recorded sale has reached it yet.

On value it sits in the top 5 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 87 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 97 percent. Among the games that feel like it, We Were Here (free, scores 76) beats it on value, while it beats Agent A: A puzzle in disguise ($19.99, scores 61).

1 of the 368 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here comes from a buyer who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written October 2023 to September 2026.

Valve rates it Steam Deck Verified, and at 3.2 hours it is short enough to finish on one.
