It has been discounted 71 times in the 13 years tracked here. The median cut across all of them is 80 percent, about 8 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 4 weeks ago.

On this data it would still be a BANGER at $41.03. It costs $19.99.

What drives the score

Reviews
Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones
Replayability~38h to replay
Co-op and replay time. The value score counts hours well past the 8h main story
MonetizationNone
Checked: no in-game purchases or loot boxes. That earns a small credit unless Steam lists in-app purchases

From the developer's own Steam disclosure. No disclosure is not proof of none, so it does not move the score
