Tragedy! Santa; the toy giving folk-hero, and purveyor of fine Christmas goods, has had enough. Endless requests from greedy children wanting more and more every year, tax increases, pressure from elf unions, bills, reindeer!
What drives the score
How to read this
Every input gets a grade, S to D, read from the buyer's side. The score is multiplicative, so an input only counts as raising when it sits near the top of its own scale. Anything with real room left is holding the score back, because that room is the gap to 100. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. The exact weights stay secret.
The value story
It has never been cheaper than $0.98. That was December 2014. It has been discounted 47 times in the 13 years tracked here, typically at 33 percent off, with about 11 weeks between sales. Today it is at full price. The last sale was about 40 weeks ago, and on this game's rhythm the next one tends to arrive within 11 weeks.
Against its own genre it lands in the top 1 percent on value. It is cheaper than 85 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 96 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Viscera Cleanup Detail ($12.99, scores 87) beats it on value, while it beats Granny Simulator ($4.99, scores 61).
On this data it would still be a BANGER at $4.05. It costs $2.49.

What players say
this game is so incredible. god. playing this was an unreal experience, the cleaning, the detail, ther trolling. god where do i even start. i left this game satisfied and i couldnt sleep i was too excited to play agaiun the next time ( ihave a screen limit from my mummy bro lol) this game may be unc but it can bring a smile to a newborn who was just born (bro was just born lol). anyway, incredible, 10/10
Alright this one pissed me off. I dislike holidays to begin with, so the retribution I got when burning anything and everything in the fireplace was phenominal. Howeber, what pissed me off was getting the game to 100% -- Not breaking a single christmas item while cleaning was very hard, esp when the decorative bulbs on the tree often fall off when I'm trying to get onto the table to get a elf bit that somewhow...
i clean i drop te bloody bucket i cry i clean i drop te bloody bucket i cry i clean i drop te bloody bucket i cry i clean i drop te bloody bucket i cry

Viscera Cleanup Detail: Santa's Rampage scores 86/100 on the BANG Score (a BANGER). The BANG Score rates what a game is worth for the money. Via Steam BANGERS. https://steambangers.com/game/265210/viscera-cleanup-detail-santa-s-rampageThe BANG Score is one number for value, 0 to 100: price against how it reviews and how long it was built to be. It answers the money question and stops there; whether the game is for you is still your call.
Reviews set the ceiling and price moves you inside it, so a cheap game that reviews badly cannot climb. Ratings from few reviewers are shrunk toward the middle, so 100 percent from nine people does not outrank 96 percent from ninety thousand. Length comes from HowLongToBeat where it can be matched, measured against a per-genre floor so a five-hour narrative game is judged against other narrative games rather than against a sixty-hour RPG. Where no verified length exists the score says so and carries a dock, because the biggest input is then a guess. The full method, including where it is weak → Steam reviews as of Sep 20, price as of Sep 24.
