The value story
The lowest price on record is $1.74, set in June 2014. Its cuts run 50 percent off as a rule. There have been 14 in the 12 years tracked, about 19 weeks apart.
Against its own genre it lands in the top 1 percent on value. It is better reviewed than 98 percent of its genre. Among the games that feel like it, Retrowave ($2.99, scores 91) beats it on value, while it beats OMON Simulator ($0.99, scores 38).
$10.42 is where it would stop being a BANGER. It is priced at $6.99.

A strange story that takes a while to fully get, different worlds that you travel to which then add to the story when you read what the guys...
