How to read this

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

The value story

The lowest price on record is $7.79, set in March 2026. Its cuts run 25 percent off as a rule. There have been 26 in the 3 years tracked, about 6 weeks apart. Today's $8.39 at 30 percent off still sits 8 percent above the floor, so a deeper cut exists in its history.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 3 percent on value. It is pricier than 73 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 99 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Clanfolk ($29.99, scores 80) beats it on value, while it beats Diplomacy is Not an Option ($29.99, scores 69).

Inside the two-hour refund window, 81 percent of the 156 reviews written there were positive, against 96 percent overall, and those are 9 percent of everything written about it.
