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
November 2024 is where it bottomed out, at $8.44. Its cuts run 30 percent off as a rule. There have been 21 in the 3 years tracked, about 6 weeks apart. Today it is at full price. The last sale was about 12 weeks ago, and on this game's rhythm the next one tends to arrive within 6 weeks.
On value it sits in the top 1 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 87 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 97 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Supermarket Together (free, scores 89) beats it on value, while it beats House Flipper ($24.99, scores 75).
This site sampled 800 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 5 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written April 2026 to September 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 75 percent of the 3,007 reviews written there were positive, against 92 percent overall, and those are 4 percent of everything written about it.
Finishing takes 21.6 hours; clearing it takes 111, which is 5.1 times the campaign.

What players say
great game but need to have add like 10 more restockers. takes too long to restock other than that great game to build up your store
The game is kinda addictive especially in achieving goals. However, I hope that in the deli grocery store there will be some kind of a push cart to help carry more than 1 item. It's kinda tiring to go back in fort when grabing items. I hope the developer can make this suggestion come true. Thanks
the game is SUPER REALLYYY good i really recomend it but it doesnt update with more lisences though which is bad
Player reviews from Steam: the most helpful all-time, plus the newest that clear the same quality bar, with the hours each player had put in when they wrote it. The mix of Recommended and Not recommended follows the game's Steam ratio. Rotates daily. Opinions are theirs.

Supermarket Simulator scores 87/100 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/2670630/supermarket-simulatorThe 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 13, price as of Sep 23.
A number here look wrong? Tell me what it got wrong and I will look at the inputs behind it.
