The value story

It has never been cheaper than $3.89. That was September 2025. 26 discounts in the 3 years on record. They run about 40 percent off, roughly 6 weeks apart. Today's $5.19 at 60 percent off still sits 33 percent above the floor, so a deeper cut exists in its history.

At full price it scores 57. The current cut is what makes it a 67.

On value it sits in the top 6 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 67 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 85 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Littlewood ($14.99, scores 88) beats it on value, while it beats I Am Future: Cozy Apocalypse Survival ($19.99, scores 43).

13 of the 467 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written October 2023 to August 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 7 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 3,162 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 642 have a larger share. Inside the two-hour refund window, 37 percent of the 124 reviews written there were positive, against 85 percent overall, and those are 11 percent of everything written about it.

The main story runs 5.1 hours. Doing everything runs 12, 2.4 times as long.

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

What players say

Pretty good game. Worth the price. I unlocked nearly everything near the 7hour mark but I rushed it. If you took your time, you could likely get double the playtime I ran. Few things I'd like added/changed -End game loop falls off. I didn't really feel ther was any point once I unlocked everything to continue playing, aside from hoarding wealth. - A lot of gameplay features I either didn't use, or only used maybe a...

Its a good game that could be a great game with some simple combat mission based or extraction. I don't know if we will ever see it become a great game because the developer keeps trying do work on other projects. The other games all seem kind of crap please finish and polish this game before moving on.

This was a surprisingly solid shop simulator. Of course the way that you assemble and craft your own stock from spare parts was key. Quests, orders, NPC interactions, and the small town you can explore mixed up the core loop of buying parts, selling assembled weapons, using the funds to maybe improve your shop and buy more parts so you can do it again.
