The value story

June 2026 is where it bottomed out, at $20.99. Its cuts run 20 percent off as a rule. There have been 7 in the 12 months tracked, about 12 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 2 days ago. The math puts its BANGER price at $7.11. No recorded sale has reached it yet.

Value puts it in the top 6 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 97 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 98 percent. The nearest things to it, Yooka-Laylee ($19.99, scores 40) and Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair ($29.99, scores 45), are both worse buys on this math.

Steam's global achievement data puts 27 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. The median game this site can measure sits at 15. This site sampled 375 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 7 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written October 2025 to September 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 83 percent of the 133 reviews written there were positive, against 93 percent overall, and those are 13 percent of everything written about it.

The main story runs 8.1 hours. Doing everything runs 17, 2.1 times as long.

At 8.1 hours it is a handheld-sized game, and Valve rates it Deck Verified.
