What we assumed
  • How long it takes to beat isn't in our data. We scored it as a typical RPG game (about 8 hours) and docked the score for the missing length.

The value story

June 2026 is where it bottomed out, at $2.99. In 3 months of price history it has never once been discounted.

On value it sits in the top 8 percent of its genre. It is cheaper than 86 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 90 percent. Among the games that feel like it, CaseCracker ($9.99, scores 70) beats it on value, while it beats The Norwood Suite ($9.99, scores 58).

This site sampled 424 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 6 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written August 2023 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 82 percent of the 406 reviews written there were positive, against 88 percent overall, and those are 40 percent of everything written about it.
