The value story

The lowest price on record is $8.99, set in December 2025. 11 discounts in the 2 years on record. They run about 35 percent off, roughly 13 weeks apart. Today's $8.99 at 50 percent off matches the lowest price in the record.

At full price it scores 59. The current cut is what makes it a 67.

On value it sits in the top 5 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 85 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 87 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Supermarket Simulator ($11.99, scores 74) beats it on value, while it beats Hotel Renovator ($24.99, scores 39).

8 of the 526 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written August 2024 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 50 percent of the 109 reviews written there were positive, against 85 percent overall, and those are 7 percent of everything written about it.

Finishing takes 13.1 hours; clearing it takes 30, which is 2.3 times the campaign.

What players say

I really love this game but I do not recommend it at this stage. Dev never finished fixing many many bugs 1. I constantly tp away from my cart for no reason. Had to keep walking back to my cart and continue my tasks (quite a distance of walk too). 2. Traffic is so bugged when the oil truck and/or delivery truck is trying to exit the premise along with other cars> I have to walk to the "emergency button" to reset the...

game hasn't been updated since february 2025. don't buy it if you expect any updates, communications from the devs, or bug fixes. fun game but sucks its been abandoned and there's so many bugs.

The motel in the woods seems to work, but the desert motel SUCKS. The delivery truck just stays and won't leave and you can't order more goods. There have been complaints of the devs just bailing on this game. It was a good game until these issues. DO NOT BUY THIS GAME! It will only disappoint you and you will be angry as hell.
